Questions & Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything families want to know about the Kindergarten programme.

What elementary schools do Tutor Time Kindergarten graduates typically go to?
Our graduates enter a wide range of schools — national plus schools, international schools, and local schools. They are consistently noted by their new teachers for their readiness, confidence, and love of learning.
Is the Kindergarten curriculum aligned with Indonesian SD curriculum standards?
Yes. While our programme is internationally benchmarked, we ensure all children meet and exceed the competency standards required for entry into Sekolah Dasar.
What is the Graduation ceremony like?
Our annual Graduation is a major celebration — children perform, receive their graduation certificate, and transition officially into the next chapter. It is one of the highlights of the Tutor Time year for families and teachers alike.
Is there a report card?
Yes — Kindergarten children receive formal written progress reports twice a year, plus ongoing informal communication through our parent engagement system. Two parent-teacher conferences are also held annually.
Can a child join Kindergarten without having been at Tutor Time before?
Yes — we welcome new families at any stage. Children joining from other schools settle in quickly thanks to our warm, structured environment. We'll assess readiness during enrolment.
What happens after Kindergarten graduation?
Our Alumni network keeps Tutor Time families connected. Many of our graduates are now adults — and some are enrolling their own children with us today.
