Prep is the first year of school and provides the foundation for your child's education. It is compulsory for Queensland children to undertake Prep prior to Year 1. Prep is a full-time program in primary schools and has a defined curriculum.

Children must be five years old by the 30th of June in the year they enrol in Prep. This means that if your child was born between 1 July 2021 and 30 June 2022, they are eligible to commence in Prep in 2027.

View the Department's prep ready reckoner calculator ​ to determine when your child can commence their preparatory year.

Parents enrolling their child in school have the option of an early or delayed start. Enrolment age variations may be due to a child's development and readiness, and could improve their ability to learn.

If you are considering Early Entry to Prep, please contact the school to arrange to meet with the Principal or the delegate to discuss the early entry requirements and request an application form.
