As my son will be 4 years old in October 25th this year. But I am told that he can only b enrolled in playgroup. I don't want to put him in play group.
Wish to see ur proper guidence.

4+ for kg1
the minimum age is 3 for KG1 in british system but the cut off date is 31 August.
for british system the cut off date is 31 August.
Usually the criteria for a child in KG-1 for both British and American Curriculums here in Qatar is that the child should be 5 yrs. old before September 1.
Unfortunately your child's b-day is October that is why they are not accepting him for KG-1.
But maybe if your child has the skills for KG-1 then you can ask the registrar and the principal for an interview or test to allow him for KG-1. It's a long shot but it's worth a try.
