"According to this page's Definitions for students of the Canada Revenue Agency, those who regularly attend a college, university, or other educational institution that offers courses at a post‑secondary school level".

If your kids are in grades 4 and 1, they will not be considered students for tax purposes.

However, you can claim them as dependents.
