We're okay now from a copyright point of view. Not familiar with the grade system. Normally elementary schools are not considered notable enough for their own articles. What are the ages of the children attending the school? — Diannaa (talk) 02:22, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

I would strongly urge Wikipedia to review their policy to exclude early childhood development (ECD) centres from equal representation in Wikipedia. It is the work, commitment and foundation provided by dedicated educators and ECD schools at the early stages of a child’s development that defines the success of learners at high school, colleges or universities. I understand that there are many ECD centres, crèches, preschools and pre-primary schools that are not registered with the proper education authorities, at least consider including those that have register and is recognised by the respective authorities. In case of the Yard Preparatory, the school is registered with the Gauteng Department of Education, which in turn is part of the South African Department of Basic education. This can be confirmed by reviewing this PDF file , refer to the entry marked NATEMIS 700700587
I strong argue that ECD institutions such as The Yard Preparatory be included in Wikipedia as they fulfill an important role in society and should be fairly represented on Wikipedia

With regards to the importance of stimulation during early childhood can be reviewed here.
