Abstract	Kindergarten is the critical beginning of formal education, significantly influencing a child's readiness and adaptability to school experiences. Children's school readiness is essential for successful learning within a classroom environment. This study focuses on assessing the school readiness of kindergarten pupils at Wesleyan Kindergarten and Nursery School, guiding teachers to adjust methodologies to better cater to their students' abilities. The research aims to evaluate readiness across various domains: gross motor, fine motor, self-help, receptive and expressive language, cognitive, and socio-emotional. The study involved 52 pupils enrolled in the Kinder 2 curriculum for the 2017-2018 academic year. Data was analyzed using frequency and percentage distribution, weighted arithmetic mean, and chi-square tests. Findings indicate that most respondents are five-year-old males, with a significant portion having attended private nursery schools. Fathers are predominantly private employees, while mothers are public employees. Children showed readiness in most domains except the self-help domain. Notably, school readiness significantly differed based on profile factors such as age, nursery school attendance, and parents' occupations. Girls, younger children, and those with parents in specific occupations exhibited higher readiness levels. The study concludes that age, nursery attendance, and parental occupation are crucial in school readiness. Recommendations include age-appropriate enrolment, teacher training, activities to enhance readiness, orientation seminars for parents, adoption of the ECCD checklist, and further research into factors affecting school readiness.
