Does being underage matter in education and learning?
I encountered this debate in a whatsapp group when someone wrote that having underage children in higher classes is not a good thing.
I’m having this thing in my family and it’s such an uncontrollable kind. I just need to go with what’s happening and see where it goes. My kids are way younger than their classes and learning they have experienced and I kept questioning if this is right or not. Does age count in learning?
My son, soon to be 14 years old, just received admission to the university along with a little scholarship towards his tuition and going away during the week to campus. This kid graduated from elementary school at age 9, spent only 4, instead of 6 years of high school. He enrolled for the joint admission examination as well as a local scholarship program and succeeded in them.
Other than that, this kid is studying software engineering, Java script coding and animation for his online classes. He’s also good at graphic design and mobile phone repair, and simultaneously conducting lesson classes for middle school students on science topics. When he mentioned the university admission, I was worried about his age, and that he wouldn’t be able to handle campus life along with the online classes and other stuff he’s into right now.
I wanted him to concentrate on his training a couple of years before contemplating the university, but my son told me he can handle it. At his age, I pity him to be involved in all these things simultaneously, but it’s like hubby to him, and he’s genuinely having a time with all that he’s engaged in.
I wasn’t psychologically prepared to let him go off to university yet, but for the scholarship he earned, I’ve got no other choice because I don’t want him to miss out on an opportunity that benefits him, but equally benefits me, the dad.
My son is not the only victim of this under age education and learning. My two youngest daughters are both minors in their respective classes. My youngest, a 7-year old, is in primary 3, while her 10-year old sister is in basic 7 or class one in secondary school. When she graduated from primary school a few months ago, her school principal actually told me to put her in class basic 8 in secondary because her level of understanding is beyond basic 7. But her peers are still in primary 4.
But I could not heed the principal's advice, I started her in secondary 1st year class because I wanted her to have the basic knowledge of secondary lessons. Well, it turns out she was actually ahead of other students in her class in terms of knowledge even though she’s the youngest by age. And to top it all, they appointed her class prefect on her first day at school.
So I ask you, how much does age really matter in education and learning? Does being young for your class aid or impede academic development?
