School Year Placement
Israel places children by their Hebrew birthday, with a cut-off of 1 Tevet — so the secular date shifts every year. Enter a birthday and see the grade.

Indicative only. Israel’s school cut-off is 1 Tevet in the Hebrew calendar, so the equivalent secular date moves each year. Borderline birthdays, special-education needs and school-specific policies can change placement — confirm with the Ministry of Education or the school. New-immigrant children may receive extra Hebrew support (sha’ot olim).
