Yesterday the kids were playing in the sandbox and went toKindergarten. But school time has come. In this article we will talk about what issues parents may face about schooling and how to apply for school in first grade.
From what age do they register a child for school
Primary general education can begin children inage from 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 allow enrollment of children earlier 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 they will be trained.
The procedure for admission of children in the first class
When enrolling children in first grade, parents are offered 2 options:
- Determine the child to school at the place of residence. In this case, enrollment takes place in priority order.
- You can choose another school to your liking. In this embodiment, parents are given only “free places”.
Admission to the first class at the place of residence or place of residence
The city educational department (GORONO) issues an order or administrative act on the assignment of schools, gymnasiums or lyceums to the territorial sections of the city or settlement.
With such an 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 even then apply to the school for the first grade.
After determining the number of the school, for whichthe place of residence is fixed, applicants are obliged to submit an application together with documents in the period from February 1 to June 30. The necessary list of documents in this case will be the following:
- Application for admission to school.
- A certificate or any other document certifying the place of residence of the future student.
- Passport or identity document of the applicant.
- Original birth certificate of the future first-grader.
The application is officially registered with the school administration, and already 7 days after the submission of documents, an order is issued to enroll the child in school in the first grade.
The administration of the school is prohibited from collecting any additional information about parents: for example, a certificate of salary from the place of work, a certificate of residence, etc.
The school refused to admit to the first class at the place of registration ...
By law, the school is obliged to accept allfirst graders living on the plot assigned to her. In the procedure of assigning territories to schools, an approximate number of future students is taken into account.
But it may happen that the amountThose who wish to apply to school in the first grade will be more than the number of places in this educational institution. Then, as a priority, those children whose parents submitted applications before all will be enrolled, that is, the date of submission of the application matters. And if there are no free places, the school has the right to refuse admission to study. In this case, parents or representatives can contact the local education authorities, where they can help identify the child in another school.
Entering the school for free places
If parents, say, have chosen to teachanother school that is not fixed at their place of residence, then for this category there is a procedure for admission to the available vacancies. Empty seats are those left after the completion of classes. In this case, the application to the school principal is accepted by the administration from July 1 and prior to the start of classes, but not later than September 5 In some cases, schools begin accepting applications for vacancies before July 1 - the corresponding announcement can be found on the school website.
The list of documents submitted by the applicant will be the same as when enrolling at the place of residence. But the document on the registration of the child is not needed.
If parents really want their son to beit is in this school that you can look like preparatory courses there, and then convince the principal that the child is very used to school and teachers and will be very worried about parting.
Competitive selection and testing for free space
When enrolling a child in the first grade, the school does nothas 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 babies at admission can be interviewed, in which parents can attend. The duration of the interview should not exceed more than 30 minutes.

Do I need to pay money
In schools, tuition is not paid.But when enrolling children, 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 unbearable, they can contact the prosecutor's office.
The school does not have the right to offer to make an entrance fee before enrollment, as this will already be considered a bribe.
If the school insists pay someoptional or additional classes, parents have the right to require the conclusion of an agreement on the provision of paid services. But you need to remember that applying for a school is in no way connected with money.
