How to apply to school in first grade. Documents for the first class

Yesterday the children played in the sandbox and went to the kindergarten. But here came the school season. In this article, we will talk about the issues that parents may face about schooling, and how to apply for school in the first grade.

From what age do they make out a child to school

Primary general education can begin at the age of six and a half to eight years, but not later, if the medical examination did not reveal contraindications to study. In some cases, the school administration may authorize the enrollment of children sooner or later than this age, depending on each specific situation.

Parents can also choose at their discretion the future place of study (school, lyceum, gymnasium), as well as the program for which the training will be conducted.

The order of admission of children in the first class

When recording children in the first grade of the school, parents are offered 2 options:

1. Identify the child in school by place of residence. In this case, enrollment takes place in priority order.
2. You can choose another school to your liking. In this variant, parents are provided with only "free places".

Admission to the first class at the place of residence or residence

The city educational department (GORONO) issues an order or an administrative act on securing schools, gymnasiums or lyceums for the territorial sections of a city or a settlement.

With this order can be found on the websites of schools. From the order, parents will be able to find out which school their house belongs to and then apply to the first grade school.

After determining the number of the school for which the place of residence is assigned, the applicants are required to submit an application along with the documents from February 1 to June 30. The necessary list of documents in this case will be as follows:

• Application for admission to school.
• Certificate or any other document certifying the place of residence of the future student.
• Passport or document proving the identity of the applicant.
• The original of the birth certificate of the future first-grader.

The application is obligatory officially registered by the school administration, and already 7 days after the documents are filed, the order is issued to enroll the child in school in the first class.

The administration of an educational institution prohibits the collection of any additional information about the parents: for example, a certificate of wages from the place of employment, a certificate of residence,

The school refused to admit to the first class at the place of registration ...

According to the law, the school is obliged to accept all first-graders living in the area assigned to it. In the process of securing territories for schools, the approximate number of future students is taken into account.

But it may also happen that the number of applicants who applied to the school in the first class will be more than the number of places in this institution. Then, priority will be given to those children whose parents have applied earlier than all, that is, the date of application is important. And if there are no vacant places, the school has the right to refuse admission to study. In this case, parents or representatives can apply to local educational authorities, where they will be helped to identify the child in another school.

Admission to school for free places

If parents, for example, have chosen another school for teaching their child, which is not fixed in their place of residence, then for this category there is an order for receipts for available vacant places. Free places are places left after completing classes. In this case, the application to the school principal is accepted by the administration from July 1 until the beginning of the training sessions, but not later than September 5. In some cases, schools begin accepting applications for vacancies before July 1 - an appropriate ad can be found on the school's website.

The list of documents submitted by the applicant will be the same as when enrolling in the place of residence. But the document on the registration of the child will not be needed.

If parents really want their offspring to get to this school, one can be like there for preparatory courses, and then convince the director that the child is very used to school and teachers and will very much experience when parting.

Competitive selection and conducting tests for vacant seats

When enrolling a child in the first grade, the school does not have the right to conduct any competitive tests or tests - testing is carried out only by specialized educational institutions that have permission to do so. But in the best and prestigious schools with kids on admission can conduct an interview, in which parents can be present. The duration of the interview should not exceed more than 30 minutes.

Nuances of admission of foreign citizens to the school

Persons who have the citizenship of another state, or stateless persons who currently reside on the territory of Russia and want to enroll their children for training in the first class, have the full right to free general education. In this case, they must provide the following documents:

1. Apply to the school in first grade.
2. Provide a document proving the identity of the applicant (passport or passport).
3. The birth certificate (original) of the son or daughter, you can provide a certified copy.
4. A document authorizing the applicant to stay on the territory of Russia.
5. A document that confirms the relationship between the applicant and the child.

We write an application to the school for admission to the first grade

How to write an application to the school? The application or appeal to the head of the school is an official legal document of an unlimited duration, when writing which should adhere to some generally accepted basic rules:

1. The text of the petition should be written only by hand with a ballpoint pen. Template printed text is not allowed - in case of disputable situations, parents will be able to refuse the voluntary submission of an application written not on their hand.
2. It is necessary to observe the margins and indents of the text, and also to monitor the absence of grammatical errors.
3. The text is written beautifully, legibly and contains meaning.
4. The application must include all information about the future student and his parent.
5. And at the end of the application, there must be a signature and a date, under which the director's signature and seal are subsequently placed.

Rules or nuances of drafting an application

The application form for a school or a template can be taken directly at the school or at the gymnasium, as well as on the spot to ask the question of interest.

When drawing up an application for the admission of a child into the first class, some rules should be taken into account:

• The appeal is written in the name of the director, you should also remember to write down the name of the institution and its address, where it is located.
• The text must include all the information about the parent who submits the application - full initials, date and year of birth, address of residence and telephone number on which you can contact the applicant.
• Then in the middle of the line the word "statement" is written.
• The text of the statement itself starts with a red line. It indicates all the full information about the child - name, surname, patronymic, date of birth and age, place of residence, pre-school preparation, medical contra-indications, etc.
• In the end there must be a signature and a date.

Do I have to pay money

In schools, tuition is not paid. But when enrolling children for study, parents are asked to make a contribution to the needs of the class or school. Usually, parents do not object to "voluntary donations". But if the fees for some are too much, they can turn to the prosecutor's office.

The school does not have the right to offer to make an entrance fee before enrollment, since this will already be considered a bribe.

If the school insists on paying some optional or additional lessons, the parents have the right to demand the conclusion of an agreement on the paid services. But we must remember that the application to the school is not connected with money.
