My son is giving lessons to some youngsters who have a youth sized guitar. It needs to be tuned to key of a due to string length. Can any one give me a clue?

It may be a "chop scale" guitar, tuned like a regular guitar that's been capo'ed at the fifth fret, so it'd be ADGCEA. I have a Breedlove Passport that's tuned that way.
