In the summer months, in many families, the issue of transferring a child to another school becomes relevant. In this article, we will look at the cases in which a student can be transferred to another school.

At the legislative level, this issue is regulated by the Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated March 12, 2014 No. 177, according to which the Procedure Procedure is approved.

Reasons for transferring a child to another school

According to paragraph 1 of the Order, the reason for transferring a child to another school for study may be:

1. The initiative of the parents (legal representatives) of a minor child

2. The initiative of the student who has reached the age of majority

3. When the parent institution went out of business

• suspension or revocation of an organization's license
• suspension or deprivation of the state accreditation of the license for the relevant educational program or when the period of validity of the state accreditation for the relevant educational program has expired

To transfer a child to another school, you have to go through two stages: first, expulsion from one educational institution, and then transfer to another. You have the right to transfer the child to any secondary school of your choice, but do not forget that this will be possible if the school has vacant places, taking into account the priority enrollment of citizens living in the territory assigned to a particular school. This is stated in clause 4 of the Procedure approved by the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia dated January 22, 2014 No. 32.

Host School Confirmation

The next item is a request to the administration of the selected new school to confirm the fact that it will accept the child for education.

To avoid possible difficulties that are associated with the transfer of a student to a new educational institution, before expelling the child from the previous school, arrange an appointment with the head of the host school. In order to confirm this point, for example, you can receive a letter about the possibility of accepting a child for education after he is expelled from the previous school with the seal of the institution and the signature of the director.

Applying for a school dropout

The application can be submitted by the student himself, who has already reached the age of majority, or by the parents (legal representatives) of the student who is under 18 years old. The application is written in the name of the director of the school in which the child is studying. It should contain the following information:

1. Full name of the student
2. Class and profile of study, if any
3. Date of Birth
4. The name of the school that accepts the student. If the family moves to another place, only the settlement, the subject of the Russian Federation is indicated

Important! In addition to the application, the school may require a document confirming the fact that the student has been accepted to another school. In this situation, you can submit a letter signed by the director of another school institution, in which they confirmed their readiness to accept the child to study at this school. Based on this application, the school from which the child is expelled, within 3 days, will have to issue an administrative act on the expulsion of the student in the order of transfer, indicating the school that accepts him for further education (see clause 7 of the Procedure).

What documents do you need to pick up when changing schools

It is necessary to pick up documents from the school from which the student is expelled (clause 7 of the Procedure). Among them:

• Student's personal file
• Papers containing information about the student's performance in the current school year (required to request an extract from the class book with current grades and midterm assessment results)

Documents must be certified by the seal of the school and countersigned by its director (or a person authorized to exercise his functions).

What documents need to be submitted to the new school

A student who has reached the age of majority or the parents of a student who has not yet reached the age of majority should submit the following package of documents to the host school (according to clause 10 of the Procedure):

• Application for enrollment of a student in a school that accepts a child in the order of transfer from a previous school. The paper is written in the name of the director of the school to which the child will be transferred
• A package of documents that was received from the school from which the student was expelled
• Original documents that a student who has reached the age of majority or a parent (legal representative) of a student who has not yet reached the age of majority

Important! According to paragraph 9, as a basis for enrolling a student in a host school in connection with the transfer of a child from a former school, the management is prohibited from requiring the provision of other documents.

Carefully study the order of the head of the school (the administrative act of the educational institution) that the child is accepted into the school.

The director of the school that accepts the child issues an administrative act within three working days after the application and a package of documents indicating the class and date of enrollment were accepted.

There can be many reasons for transferring a child to another school in Moscow: an insoluble conflict with classmates, a weak level of teaching, or moving to a new place of residence. In our material, Foxtime will tell you what documents are required to transfer a student to another educational institution, what difficulties you may encounter during the transfer and how to solve them.

First you need to choose a suitable school for transfer, after which you should find out about the availability of places in an educational institution. Article 10 of the Law of the City of Moscow "On General Education in the City of Moscow" provides for the refusal of admission to an educational institution due to the lack of vacant places in it.

If the selected school has vacancies, you should contact the district department of education and find out which school your child should attend. The administration of educational institutions stores information on the number of children and takes into account a certain reserve when enrolling classes. If in the middle of the year it is necessary to transfer a child to another school, a place must be found for him.

Transfer to another school through the public service portal

Transfer terms

Parents (legal representatives) of minor children can transfer a child from one school to another.

Online enrollment to another school

Before you can drop your child from school, you must register an electronic application for admission to another school. This can only be done using the "Services" section of the official website of the Mayor of Moscow mos.ru. You can be denied admission to an educational organization only because there are no vacancies.

To enroll a child in another school on the official website of the Mayor of Moscow mos.ru, you will need:

• passport details of one of the parents (legal representative);
• series and number of the child's birth certificate;
• address of registration of the child at the place of residence or stay in the city of Moscow;
• SNILS (for registration on the portal).

If you have previously registered on the Our City, Avtokod or Moscow Parking portals, then you already have a login and password to enter the Moscow Mayor's website mos.ru, since access to these information resources is unified.

You can register your child through the portal Gosulsug mos.ru

After that, it is necessary to prepare and submit to the school the following documents:

student's personal file;

child's medical record;

A diary with annual grades, certified by the seal of the school;

An extract of current grades, certified by the seal of the school;

Passport of one of the parents indicating the place of residence.

Documents in the old school should be issued after you present a certificate from the new school, which will say that the child is accepted there. If they do not want to issue documents to you, you have the right to apply to higher organizations, even to the department of education.

In elite educational institutions, specialized schools or schools with a strong program, they may be required to pass a competition, that is, exams in basic subjects. To make it easier for your child to pass them, you can use the services of tutors. Based on the documents and the results of the competition, the new school writes an order to enroll the child.

When transferring a child to another school after nine years of education, some nuances are added. A child may not be accepted to a new school due to poor grades, as the school takes responsibility for enrolling its students in universities. In addition, you will need to submit additional documents:

Application to the principal of the school

Certificate of completion of 9 classes,

Private bussiness,

medical card,

Passport of one of the parents.

Do not forget that some public schools provide additional funding through the sponsorship of the parents of students. In such schools, a certain entrance fee is set. Ask in what form you should make an entrance fee, since only non-cash payments are officially allowed. The school is not allowed to take cash, as this can lead to criminal penalties. The school administration has the right only to ask for a contribution that the parents can afford and the amount of such a contribution must be determined by the parents themselves. You cannot be denied admission to a school just because you did not pay the entrance fee.

All parents want to have a legitimate reason to be proud of their offspring. School achievements of children are actively discussed in the family circle, among acquaintances and colleagues. The reason for this is simple. Children are our future, which parents, with varying degrees of purposefulness, nurture in the present. Of course, everyone would like the road to this secure and happy future to be straight and short. But the river of life rarely flows smoothly, and situations often arise when it is necessary to think about how to transfer a child to another school.

Typical reasons for transfer

1. Family relocation to another area, city or even country for professional or personal reasons.
2. Relationship problems: serious conflicts with peers or, worse, with teachers.
3. The expectations and ambitions of parents are much higher or noticeably lower than the school curriculum and teaching staff.
4. Threat to the reputation of the child, deterioration of his social prospects (registration of a minor, the influence of a bad company).

Of course, a caring parent will make every effort to ensure that the school life of his child is successful and happy.

So, certain circumstances force you to change schools. How to transfer a child to another school as quickly and without problems as possible? It depends on parental settings and specific conditions. Of course, you need to take into account the desire of the child and at the same time you should not rely only on his opinion. He does not like changes, they scare him, this is a property of human nature.

Determine the criteria for choosing a new school

1. List the important criteria for a new school to meet. This is the location, reputation and prestige, specialization, material and technical base, the number of students in the class, cooperation with universities, a specific program, transport accessibility, the social composition of students, regular material contributions from parents, the load on lessons and homework, the availability of electives and special courses , feedback about teachers and more. The younger the child, the more important the proximity to home and the presence of a friendly teacher.
2. These criteria should be weighted on any convenient scale. It is more customary to use a five-point grading system. For example, transport accessibility is important for someone, then this criterion receives a "5", the social composition is also important - by "4", all other criteria pass with the lowest scores. This step is called ranking.
3. Further, all criteria must be arranged in descending order of importance. Anything after the top seven points can be cut off as unimportant. The most important is concentrated, as a rule, in the first 2-3 paragraphs. Ideally, a transfer to another school should solve several problems at once.

Looking for information about the school

Collect as much reliable information as possible. Use the Internet, reference books, consult with friends and colleagues, visit exhibitions, study ratings. Each selected interesting educational institution needs to be assigned points according to important criteria. And as a result, calculate the final score for each school. This is how the best school for a son or daughter is chosen.

School visit

Prepare to go to school. Please check the availability of seats in the desired class in advance. Arrange a visit through the secretary. And see everything with your own eyes. Come a little early and walk around the school. Analyze its size, appearance, well-groomed school grounds. If possible, observe the children - what and how they say. Inside the building, with a tenacious glance, evaluate the design, cleanliness and order, be sure to take a look at the stands and showcases. You will be able to understand the degree of activity of the school, what competitions and olympiads it sends its students to. If this is a regular high school, there will most likely be a meeting with the principal and class teacher. They will look at you, parents and student, assessing something like this: how sane mom and dad are, and what problems the child will create. Students will be asked questions about their favorite subjects and hobbies. At such "brides" you need to show maximum friendliness and convince the administration of your trustworthiness and diligence.

Transfer to the gymnasium

How to transfer to another school if it is a specialized gymnasium? As a rule, entrance selection in gymnasiums and lyceums is more strict, and one conversation with the leadership is not enough. The exception will be the winner of the Olympiads of district or city significance. An extract from the school diary will be scrupulously studied under a magnifying glass, and the applicant will be offered to be tested. The results will be decisive. If they are not brilliant, the gymnasium may offer to try next year.

How do I transfer my child to another elite level school? Such a problem does not arise so often, if only because there are much fewer such establishments than ordinary ones. The focus is on the impeccable reputation of the school and financial conditions.

You are denied

If you are refused due to the fact that there are no places, there is a possibility of slyness: an excellent student will be gladly taken to any, even an overcrowded class. Stock up on additional documents. A good reference from a former class teacher will be useful. A portfolio with works that illustrate the student's creative, social or scientific activity will help create the right impression. Consider whether you can exercise your right to benefits.

How to choose a school that will be better than the previous one? After visiting different schools, systematize your impressions, weigh the pros and cons, clarify the child's opinion.

Required Documents

Now it's time to transfer to another school. The following documents are required for this. The first step is to write an application for admission to a new school. Most often, copies of the passport or birth certificate of the child and copies of the parents' passports are attached to it. If the new school gives the green light, the secretariat prints a certificate on the student's enrollment form. With this paper, you need to contact the administration of the former school. Within a certain time, they form a package of official papers for your child. There are two main documents: a personal file and a medical card. The personal file contains marks for the subjects passed for all academic years (along with quarterly grades), the medical card contains lists of chronic and past diseases and vaccinations. This kit must be transferred to the new school, and within 2-3 days an order will be issued to enroll the child in the class.

How to transfer a child to another school if it is in another city or country? It is worth noting that in this case, the parents will not have a certificate of enrollment, so the director should be warned in advance so that the administration has time to complete the necessary documents by the time of your departure.

We help the child to adapt

All children are different, each in its own way reacts to a change in the environment. Someone needs an hour to get close to classmates, someone a month, someone a year. It is in the power of parents to facilitate the adaptation period for their offspring. A few simple but effective adaptation tips.

1. Follow the daily routine as much as possible. In a well-organized rhythm of work and rest, there are fewer reasons for anxiety and anxiety.
2. Watch your nutrition. You need to eat more fruits and vegetables. Avoid long breaks in eating. Pamper your child with what he likes (new school is not the time for fasting).
3. Talk to the class teacher first, tell him about your "treasure". Mention the merits willingly, the shortcomings - casually. If possible, at the first meeting, sign up for the parent committee or offer him your all possible help. This way you will be closer to the teacher, parents and the problems of the class as a whole.
4. Help with lessons if needed. In a new school, the requirements and program may differ for better or for worse. Check your diary daily, paper or electronic.
5. Try to listen and hear your child. Ask about what's going on in class.
6. Sign up your offspring for an elective or school section of interest.
7. Send the child for a walk in the yard. This is a great place for dating and brainwashing.

New school - new opportunities

Every day the world becomes more mobile and interesting. For most kids, moving to another school will be a wonderful opportunity to gain new experiences, change their attitude towards learning, and make friends for life.

The procedure for admission and expulsion from 2nd to 9th and from 10th to 11th grades is somewhat different and there are reasons for this. So please read our article carefully.

Admission and expulsion from grades 2 to 9

Basic general education (9 grades) is guaranteed to every Russian. And parents have the right to transfer their child from one school to another, provided that there are free places.

Schools on their official websites are required to update information on the availability of free places in classes daily. If for some reason there is no such information, then you can always contact the education department of your city/district. All educational institutions periodically send information about vacant places for students to the department of education. Therefore, there you will definitely be advised where you can transfer the child.

Documents for expulsion from school:

If you want to transfer to another school, you must be expelled from yours. This will require application for deduction from an educational organization, which can be written both in free form and according to the model. In our school it looks like this:

when transferring to another educational institution:

when moving:

After writing the application, the following documents will be prepared for you within 3 days:

What the school will ask you when applying for training from grades 2 to 9:

1. parent's application for admission to an educational organization. In different schools, it may differ or even be written in a free form.

An example of an application for admission to the 8th grade:

2. student's personal card (with a record of withdrawal from the previous school, certified by the principal's signature and seal) ;

3.student medical record .

Later, you will be asked for other documents, such as: a copy of the certificate / passport of the child, consent to the processing of personal data. But at the stage of admission, you must present only this.

Admission to 10th grade

One of the most common questions parents ask about entering 10th grade is: “Who should write an application for admission to the 10th grade? Parents or child?.

On the one hand, according to Art. 34, paragraph 1, paragraph 1 of the law "On Education in the Russian Federation", the application can be written by the future tenth grader himself.

Students are granted academic rights to:

1) the choice of an organization carrying out educational activities, the form of education and the form of education after receiving basic general education or after reaching the age of eighteen;

But on the other hand, he is not yet an adult. Therefore, the application must be written by his legal representatives.

Schools have a second opinion, so it’s better for parents to write an application, taking their passport and a certificate of completion of grade 9 (basic general education) of their child with them.

An example of an application for admission to grade 10:

Advice

If your child at school is offered not to go to grade 10 (not very good behavior, uncertainty about passing the exam in the future), then do not rush to be indignant: “Do not go to vocational school!”. The time of vocational schools and similar educational institutions, where those who did not shine with higher education, is a thing of the past. Sometimes, it’s not worth spending 2 years at school, and then, without passing the exam, grab your head with an exclamation: “We lost 2 whole years!”.

Secondary educational institutions (technical schools, colleges) will give you the opportunity to get a profession at a time when your peers receive only a certificate of secondary general education. Admission to college will in no way reduce the chances of entering a university.

What to do if you change your mind about going to this school

If you wrote an application for admission, and then changed your mind / vacated a place in the desired educational institution, then you can write application for revocation , in which you make a note about the return of the submitted documents (personal and medical cards, certificate of basic general education).

An example of an application for withdrawal of an application for admission to grade 10 (an application for withdrawal of an application for grades 2-9 is written in the same way):

If there are no free places in the school, where do you go?

It also happens that in the school to which you belong by registration, there were no free places. Most likely you will be advised to go look for places in other educational institutions. But if you think that you are obliged to be accepted there, write an application for admission (see sample above). It must be registered in the book of incoming correspondence. Ask for a copy of this application with the reference number. You should receive a response within 7 days. This may be an admission to the school or you will be given a notice of denial of admission.

An example of a notice of denial of admission to an educational organization:

The notice is usually sent by certified mail. But you can follow him yourself. With the received documents, you go to the education department of your city/district. There they will already decide whether the school is obliged to accept you or whether it will offer other options for admission.

Now the problem of moving from one school to another will not confuse you, since the procedure for collecting documents is known to you and is not difficult. The main thing is to find a good vacancy. Good luck in your search!

For parents, the problem of how to transfer a child to school always raises many questions. How to choose the right educational institution? What documents are required for this? When is the best time to translate? Who will the child learn from?

Practice shows that parents try to make the transfer so that it falls at the beginning of the year (September). Less often - the translation is carried out in the middle. Very rarely, children are taken away from school towards the end of the year, usually allowing them to finish the course of the next class.

The transition is guaranteed by law

In this regard, do not worry, the transition is possible at any training period. It doesn't matter if it's the beginning of the year, the middle or the end. Education in Russia is free. It is even mandatory under the Constitution.

Parents, if their child is a minor, have the legal right to choose a school. No one has the right to obstruct them in any way.

The education department will help you

Choosing a new school for a child is, of course, a rather serious matter. Parents should not be too lazy and make detailed inquiries about the new school. A preliminary visit to the new school will also be useful. There you will learn about everything in detail, talk with the administration and teachers.

Be sure to find out if the school has problems with free places. The rules say that if the school does not have free places, then you may be officially denied. In the event that you are refused under the pretext of lack of vacancies in several schools, then contact local officials. The education department will help you.

In the former school, you must be expelled, maximum, within 3 days

When the issue with the new school is resolved, then you need to come to the old one and write an application to be expelled. You will indicate as the reason for your departure that you are transferring to another educational institution. Enter the details of the new school. In the event that your family decided to change their place of residence, then indicate the future address.

The school administration is obliged to promptly issue an order for the expulsion of a former student. The law gives her 3 working days for this. The order must indicate the details of the school where the child goes or indicate the city (town) where you intend to go.

When dealing with the issue of how to transfer a child to school, it is important to know what documents you should be given:

• Firstly, you are required to hand over a personal file
• Secondly, the former school properly draws up a special extract. It contains the current grades received during the academic year and the points given during the interim assessment

Just in case, check that all documents received have the school seal and all the necessary signatures.

School students cannot be placed on probation

In the former school, parents cannot be prevented from obtaining their child's documents. Moreover, they are obliged to do this, including during the summer holidays. It turns out, regardless of the time of year. Refusal, from the point of view of the law, is unacceptable. You can easily appeal it to the prosecutor's office.

There should be no more paperwork for your child to be enrolled in a new school. They are not allowed to ask for additional documents. Sometimes the school may ask you to bring some more information, but this must be prescribed by the Charter. To avoid surprises, ask the school secretary in advance what is needed.

In the near future, the principal of the school draws up an order for enrollment. The former school is notified of the transfer in writing. Please note that the law does not allow any temporary enrollment orders. For example, we enroll until the end of the year with a trial period (suddenly the child will often begin to violate discipline). For students of Russian schools, there is no concept, as for future employees, of a probationary period.

Are there options when you will be refused admission to a new school?

When dealing with the question of how to transfer a child to school, his parents should be aware of the existence of several options when the school administration can refuse them admission.

Option 1

You have chosen a school, but there are no free places. Refusal for this reason is possible if you are not registered in the territory assigned to the school.

Option 2

If the institution you have chosen has classes with advanced programs in certain subjects, and you failed to pass the competitive test. The educational institution in this situation has the right to check the level of preparation of your child. This is due to the fact that in profile classes there are other requirements for the level of preparation of students. This is why you may be asked to take additional testing.

At the initial stage of education, a simple interview is often practiced by a teacher and a school psychologist. A school that studies languages ​​in depth will offer you a test in a foreign language. In the middle classes, you will have to pass a test in core subjects. In grades 10-11, an exam is also possible.

Some special cases that may arise during the transition

What to do when you are about to leave school, and you have a debt (it is commonly called academic). Don't worry, you won't have to rush to fix your score. The rule is this: you move to a new school, and already in it you correct the debt.

If you are persistently advised to sponsor a new school and announce an amount that you cannot afford, then you have every right to make a feasible contribution. You determine the amount of the contribution yourself. The school administration has no right to refuse you admission, referring to the small amount of the contribution. It is illegal.

Be prepared for the fact that at first classmates will experience an increased interest in the "newbie" person. The adaptation period is usually limited to 1-2 weeks. After that, the close interest in the "new" disappears and school life goes back to normal.
