At Springfield, age is one of the factors considered when determining the appropriate stage of entry for a student. Our age guidelines are designed to support appropriate placement within the relevant class or grade while taking into account the academic and developmental expectations of that stage.

Parents are advised to refer to the applicable age requirement for the academic year in which admission is being sought. The final placement of an applicant is determined through the school’s admission process and assessment, ensuring that the student is considered for the stage most appropriate to their educational readiness.
