Admissions Procedures

The Aga Khan Nursery School, Dar es Salaam has three year groups with three classes in each year. 

Children are admitted to the age appropriate class. 

For admission to Year 1 parents are invited to come with their child for an interview to assess the child’s readiness for attending nursery school.

Children are expected to be toilet trained before they start nursery.  Paediatricians advise us that if children are not toilet trained they are not developmentally ready for nursery school as they will not have the necessary concentration to listen and follow instructions and play cooperatively.  At the time of admission the Headteacher will willingly provide support and guidance for parents who are anxious about this matter.

Visits to the School
Parents and prospective students are most welcome to make an appointment to meet the Headteacher and to have a tour of the school.

Office hours are 7.30 am to 4.00 pm.

Waiting Lists
A place at the Aga Khan Nursery School, Dar es Salaam is highly sought after.  Parents are advised to register their child for admission as soon as an announcement is made in the newspaper that admissions are open.

When classes are full, a waiting list is opened.  To be registered on the waiting list, parents are required to complete a school application form and request that their child’s name is added to the waiting list.
