It seemed that your baby had just started to walk. And still very fresh memories of how the kid first correctly pronounced the letter "R". We remember well how he cried and clung to your hand when he was left alone in the kindergarten for the first time ...

And suddenly you realize that, everything, the child has grown up, he will soon go to school! This raises a completely understandable question: how to enroll a son or daughter in first grade?

Many moms and dads are very serious about teaching the child, which, however, is right. The most important thing here is not to overdo it, not to overdo it. After all, sometimes you can find courses on preparing children for school ... almost from 3 years of age. And you will not surprise anyone with the preparation of children of five or six years old.

However, this is the decision of adults. The advantage of early preparation is that parents pre-determined with the school ... Moreover, it is possible to choose which educational institution to send the child to - focusing on the stories of friends or reviews on the Internet.

A small legal derogation. It must be remembered that the school administration is obliged to accept the child... Even though he did not attend preparatory classes or attended them in another educational institution.

Having decided on the school, we proceed to further actions. There are two ways to enroll a child in the first grade - by bringing the application directly to the school or using the Internet.

Let's consider both methods.

Online school enrollment in 5 steps

Recording over the Internet is carried out through portal "Gosuslugi" http://pgu.mos.ru/ .

Recording starts normally from mid-December to avoid queues.

Personal contact to school

In the case of a personal appeal, the recording takes place in two stages.

  1. From early March to late July
    During this period, an enrollment is made at the educational institution to which the address of your residence belongs. Even if you suddenly find yourself assigned to the most elite school in the city, the administration will not be able to refuse admission.
  2. From early August to September 5th
    During this time period, it is possible to register your child at a school that you do not belong to at the place of registration. If for some reason you do not like the nearest school or if you like another, located far from home, you can apply to the chosen institution.

The division of the enrollment into two stages is provided for the reason that citizens registered near this school have the advantage of admission to an educational institution.

Also, some categories of citizens have the preferential right to record:

  • children from large families;
  • from the families of the police and the military;
  • federal and regional beneficiaries.

What documents are required for admission to school?

Different documents may be requested, but they will definitely require:

  1. a document confirming the identity of the parent (or guardian) of the child;
  2. original of the child's birth certificate;
  3. a medical card with notes on vaccinations;
  4. certificate of registration at the place of residence.

Now you know how you can enroll your child in school!

It remains only to choose which one.

Starting school is an important and exciting period for both parents and grown-up children. A clear understanding of the procedure for enrolling in school in 2018 will help to survive this time with minimal loss of time and nerves.

Primary general education is compulsory and guaranteed by the state for every child upon reaching a certain age. If the child turns 6.5 on September 1, 2018, he can be enrolled in school. The upper limit for a future first grader is the age of 8 years. The education law also states that a child should not have medical contraindications for learning.

In the event that parents / legal representatives want to send their child to school earlier or later than the specified age range, it is necessary to write an application addressed to the head of the school. This appeal will be considered by a higher executive body of state power. To enter the first grade before 6.5 years old, a child will have to demonstrate (prove) his unique abilities and anticipate the development of his peers.

Application deadlines

For various categories of future first-graders, the deadlines for applying to the school have been determined. This helps to avoid the hype within the educational institutions themselves and the problems with the software when applying online. The time frame is determined by the order of the Education Committee of the Russian Federation.

For the 2017-2018 academic year, the following periods were indicated:

  • Parents of children with priority right to enroll in an educational institution submit documents from December 15, 2016 to September 05, 2017. When applying after January 20, priority status will be lost, and enrollment in the school will be carried out on a general basis, subject to the availability of vacancies. In 2017, applications in this category will be accepted from December 15th.
  • Those registered in the district assigned to the educational institution sent applications starting January 20th. Acceptance of documents from parents of preschoolers of this category was completed on June 30th. If, for some reason, the application was not sent within this period, the decision on admission to the school was carried out in a general manner.
  • From July 01 to September 05 - the time at which parents of children who are not registered in the area where the school is located are submitting electronic applications. Unfortunately, such a child will be able to get to the school desk only if there are free places in the class.

With a high degree of probability, it is precisely these terms for submitting applications online that should be guided by in the coming year.

Parents who have precisely decided on the school for their child can choose a simplified order of admission - attendance of the kindergarten. Classes most often begin in September, less often in August. After they are completed, parents must write an application to transfer their child from kindergarten to first grade. For this situation, electronic submission of documents is not provided.

The following categories of children have the priority right to enroll in school:

  1. Children of active police officers who were dismissed for health reasons, injured during the execution or died due to illness associated with the passage of the service.
  2. Children of employees of the following departments: executive, fire or customs services, state drug control. Preschoolers of retired employees who have received any injury or died during the execution also have an advantage.
  3. Children of military personnel - active, dismissed for medical reasons, or. You can take advantage of this benefit both at the place of permanent registration of the military's family, and when moving to a new place of service.
  4. Children who are dependent on the employees of public services listed in the first three paragraphs.
  5. Younger brothers or sisters of older children already enrolled in an educational institution, as well as preschoolers whose parents are employees of an educational institution.
  6. Children whose parents work in the Prosecutor's Office, the Investigative Committee or are judges have priority when entering a boarding school.

To confirm the pre-emptive right to enroll in the school, you must submit a certificate from the parents' place of work, a service certificate or a serviceman's identity card.

Step-by-step procedure for enrolling in school online

From mid-December 2017, an electronic application form for school enrollment will be available. Parents of future first-graders need to complete only three steps: send an electronic version of the application, bring the original documents and wait for a decision on enrollment or refusal. The most important step is filling out and sending a questionnaire for enrollment in school in 2018 on the public service portal - www.gosuslugi.ru.

Important! The electronic service is available after passing authorization in the Unified Federal System of Identification and Authentication - ESIA. If the parents do not yet have such an account, it is necessary to create it in advance and come up with the original documents (passport and SNILS) to the nearest MFC (multifunctional center).

Since the primary factor is the territorial principle when registering for a school, its proximity to home, you can not seek to fill out the questionnaire in the first minutes of the long-awaited date. You can also create and save a draft on the portal, and send it on the right day, depending on how the child belongs to which category.

Electronic registration for enrollment in school in 2018 looks like this step by step:

  • You need to go to the portal of state services (log in) and select your location manually or automatically.
  • Select "Education" from the service catalog. Then - "Enrollment in an educational institution" after which the service card "Enrollment in an educational institution (enrollment in a school)" will open. On this page, you must click the button - "Get the service".

  • After being redirected to the municipality page (for regions), the system will offer to create a "New Draft".
  • Then you should select the primary enrollment in the 1st grade and click the "Next" button.

  • At this stage, the missing data of the applicant is filled in (some of them will be automatically entered after authorization on the site). It is imperative to fill in all the fields marked with an asterisk - * and click the "Next" button.
  • In the form that opens, you must enter all the data about the child. If in the process of filling out the questionnaire errors were made, for example, the input format was incorrect or all information was not entered, then such a step will be highlighted in red and it will not work to send the questionnaire.

  • At the next step, it is proposed to select an educational institution (no more than three options), after which you should proceed to submitting an application.

  • Before clicking the "Submit application" button, the user will be offered a preview of the application for the purpose of final reconciliation of all data. If you made a mistake at any of the previous steps, you can return to the desired tab and enter the correct information.
  • When you click the "Submit application" button, a generated application with the assigned number will appear.
  • After refreshing the page using the F5 key, the status of the application should change to "Accepted by the Office".

You can track the status change in your personal account on the public services portal.

Within three days after submitting the questionnaire online, the educational institution must bring the originals of such documents to verify the information:

  1. Identity document of the parent or legal representative of the child.
  2. Birth certificate of a preschooler, SNILS and a document on his registration at a specific place of residence.
  3. Foreigners or stateless persons must submit documents confirming the applicant's relationship and his right to stay on the territory of the Russian Federation.
  4. For children with disabilities - a medical report and recommendations of the PMPK (psychological, medical and pedagogical commission).
  5. Documents confirming the right of priority admission.
  6. For children under 6.5 and over 8 - the decision of the executive body.

Important! The decision on enrollment or refusal is sent to your e-mail in PDF format. If the answer is positive, the letter will indicate the deadline for receiving the original documents for the preparation of the administrative act by the school.

The originals of the documents can also be taken to the MFC, from where their courier will take them to the educational institution. For foreigners, all documents must be translated into Russian and notarized.

Offline school enrollment

To record the future first-graders, you can use not only the capabilities of the portal of public services, but also simply come to the school in order to fill out the necessary papers with the help of a specialist. You can clarify the address of the educational institution assigned to the registration address in the Department of Education. For the convenience of parents, many accept documents from 8.00 to 19.00, but it is better to check the exact time at a specific educational institution.

Important! Reasons for refusing to accept documents may be the presence of corrections, erasures in the application, failure to provide a complete list of documents, offensive expressions or threats to specialists or officials of the institution, the presence of serious damage to the submitted documents, etc.

Of course, the number of people enrolling in first grade online is growing every year. But the huge queues of parents storming schools on February 1 (on the first day of receiving applications) is a familiar picture, especially in the regions. Therefore, it is much more convenient and simpler to take advantage of the opportunity, without leaving home, to fill out and send a questionnaire for enrollment. And after some time, after receiving confirmation, start the pleasant chores - collecting the future student at the school.

At the beginning of the calendar year, parents of future first graders traditionally apply for the child's enrollment in the first grade. Registration for a visit to the school is made either with a personal visit to the regional education department, or through the Internet resources authorized by the regional authorities to receive applications from parents. One of the resources on which it is possible to make an appointment at the school is the State Services portal.

The right to apply for school enrollment through Public Services

Enrollment in a school through the State Services website is a procedure for preliminary submission of an application to the municipal authorities with a request to enroll a child in a specific educational institution. This operation has the status of an administrative service provided by the education department of the locality where the school is located.

The purpose of the service is to streamline the procedure for accepting applications for admission to school for first graders. As a result of the provision of such a service as enrollment in school through the State Services, parents receive an official invitation to visit an educational institution in order to submit documents.

Important! Applying for school enrollment through the website does not constitute the final admission of a child to first grade.

The opportunity to enroll in a school through the State Services portal is provided to the parents of the child or his legal representatives. There is no fee for enrollment. Applicants are only required to provide the required package of documents and a completed application. The list of documents can be found in advance on the website. Registration for preparation for school through the State Services website is not carried out.

Detailed personal advice on the preparation of documents and applications for enrolling a child in school can be obtained at the multifunctional centers (MFC), which have been operating in municipalities since 2014.

Collection of documents and preliminary preparation for submitting an application

The application is submitted by one of the parents. To get full access to the service and have the right to register a child for school on the State Services, the applicant needs to carry out preparatory work:

  • issue a confirmed account on the State Services website;
  • receive for the child (if he is absent);
  • choose an educational institution from the list of those assigned to the child's registration address;
  • receive a certificate from the child's place of residence (the certificate is valid for six months from the date of its issue).

Also, the applicant must check the documents that confirm his identity and prove kinship or guardian relationship with the child.

The documents must be valid both at the time of registration for the child's school on the State Services portal, and upon presentation during an on-site visit to a municipal educational institution. If it is determined that the information provided on the online application does not match the parent's or child's documents, the school enrollment will be canceled.

Step-by-step instructions for enrolling in a school on State Services

According to the norms of the Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation", the regional administration determines the date of the start of accepting applications for the next academic year. You can find out the exact day of accepting applications in your region at the MFC of the village. Detailed information about the MFC is posted on the website of the mfts.rf

The peak load on sites accepting applications from parents falls just on the night of the first day, when the first grade is available for enrollment. The exact date must be found out on regional resources. It is on this day that users try to have time to submit applications to prestigious educational institutions.

In fact, on the morning of the first day, most of the vacant places in high-ranking municipal educational institutions have already been taken. To make it easier for you to have time to register your child for enrollment in the chosen school through the State Services portal, we suggest you follow our instructions. The information is presented on the example of Moscow, but this algorithm is also relevant for other cities.

On the eve, prepare a package of documents, information about which will need to be indicated during online registration. Study in detail the sample of filling out the application in the "Enrollment in an educational institution" tab.

To gain access to the section "Enrollment in the first class", you must log in to the regional portal of State Services. Perhaps the local resource will differ from the main site in design or in some details, but you can enter your personal account using the login and password that you confirmed on the federal portal.

After declaring their consent to the transfer of data electronically, the user can begin filling out forms with personal and child data.

The next stage is the choice of an educational institution and an indication of the circumstances that can be taken into account as an advantage when enrolling a child in school. There is only a choice of schools according to the place of registration of the child. Parents cannot choose a class.

If all the information is filled in correctly and in full, the system accepts an application, which is notified to the user's personal account. After receiving confirmation, within 30 days the applicant receives an invitation to the educational institution.

The invitation indicates the date, time and place of acceptance of the submission of documents and a completed application. A parent who submitted an application through the State Services portal must appear at the school with the originals of those documents on the basis of which they made an online application.

Possible difficulties when applying

The main difficulty in registering a child for school through the State Services, users consider system failures and disruptions to attempts to send an application. This year, the authorities promise to rectify the situation and improve the technical component of the provision of this administrative service.

However, there are problems that are not related to the user's information support, but relate to procedural issues for choosing an educational institution:

  • parents do not agree with the list of educational institutions offered on the website;
  • when submitting information, information about the child or parents was incorrectly displayed;
  • lack of attached educational institutions to newly built houses.

In cases where you could not get on the queue for school via the Internet due to one of the listed problems, you need to contact the regional MFC directly.

Users who have access to the final submission and registration of an application for enrollment to the school through the State Services website is open.

Submission of complaints about the actions of the administrator

If you think that the administrator applied to the school through the State Services website in violation of your rights, then the unlawful behavior can be appealed through the mechanism indicated on the website. The following actions may be considered a violation of the user's rights:

  • groundless refusal to accept the application;
  • lack of confirmation of the provision of the service;
  • lack of notification of arrival at the school for personal submission of documents;
  • disclosure of information to third parties without legal grounds.

The complaint is submitted to the head of the regional education department in writing through the MFC. Anonymous letters are not accepted. In addition to information about the applicant, the text of the complaint must indicate the circumstances of the violation of rights and provide evidence confirming violations by the administrator of the service.

The appeal must be considered within 15 calendar days. The applicant must be notified in writing of the results of the consideration of the complaint.

Each district of the city has its own educational institutions, but often mothers, for some reason, choose schools that are remote from their place of residence, not suspecting that they may be denied an educational place there. Is it legal?

Article 5 of the Law of the Russian Federation of 10.07.1992 No. 3266-1 "On Education" directly indicates that directors do not have the right to refuse those who wish to receive an education, regardless of their race, origin and place of residence.

This is also evidenced by Article 43 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, which testifies that everyone has the right to accessibility and free of charge school education. Consequently, parents can arrange their child for school, but there are pitfalls here too.

In turn, No. 310-FZ dated November 8, 2011, notes that in municipal educational institutions, children living in the same area where the institution is located have a priority rule for admission. Children can be refused admission only if there are no free places in the chosen institution.

If parents make a choice in favor of a private educational institution that does not have a municipal status, then the place of residence and registration does not play any role. A child can enter school with a minimum package of mandatory documents.

If the applicant does not have citizenship on the territory of the Russian Federation, parents need to contact the Education Department, where they are required to issue a referral to a particular educational institution. Usually, a referral is issued to those institutions where there are free places, and the wishes of those who applied are not taken into account.

Necessary grounds

The Federal Law "On Education", which entered into force in 2012 (Article 67, clause 4), applies the territorial principles of the distribution of children among schools. More specifically, when entering the first grade, priority is given to children living in this area of ​​the city and registered here.

From these babies, the so-called "first stage" is formed. Children who are not registered in this city or region also have the right to enter an educational institution, but most likely they will be referred to the so-called "second stage" (that is, parental applications will be considered only if there are free places in the institution).

On what grounds can parents and their children expect to be enrolled in a school outside the place of registration?

  1. Based on the Constitution of the Russian Federation every child has the right to free education in the chosen municipality, and therefore, parents have the right to demand admission subject to availability.
  2. Federal Law No. 273 Art. 67, item 3 notes that children have the right to study at a school located in the territory of their residence (the actual territory of residence, not registration). Therefore, when applying to a school in another district or city, parents have every reason to count on admission.
  3. If parents and their children have legal immigrant status or refugees, the state is obliged to provide students with free education, but only in those institutions where there are free places.

In theory, the Constitution and Federal Laws give parents every reason to expect that their children will be able to enter first grade in an institution outside the place of registration. In fact, the child may be denied education due to lack of free places, which is legal due to paragraph 4 of Art. 67 Federal Law "On Education".

How to get a child to go to school without registration?


The first thing a parent should do is submit the relevant application to the desired school on time... Applications for admission to the first grade for children registered in the territory attached to the school are held from April 1 (sometimes from March 1) until June 30.

Acceptance of applications from parents of children who are not registered in this territory starts from July 1. Usually, there are not many places left by this time, and they are distributed among the first who submitted the relevant applications.

The second thing to do is prepare an appropriate characterization for your child. Usually, for admission, you only need to have a baby's birth certificate, his medical record, a corresponding statement and a passport of one of the parents.

Additionally, the parent can bring diplomas or awards that the child has (both sports awards and certificates for intellectual achievements are suitable). All schools are engaged in an unspoken struggle for promising students, and if the kid already has some success, this will definitely help him to enter.

The next step, which should by no means be ignored, is submission of documents to several educational institutions at once... After the introduction of the 2012 Federal Law on predominantly territorial admission to schools, the struggle for places began in the most prestigious educational institutions throughout Russia.

For a child to have a chance to go to at least one good school, parents should submit as many duplicate applications as possible.

At the final stage of admission to school parents will find out the decision of the educational institution... The legislation provides that a week after submitting the application, parents must be informed about admission or non-admission to a particular institution.

If the child has passed this mini-selection, it is necessary to immediately return the original documents (if they have not yet been given) for the final reservation of the place.

Admission options

Legislative acts adopted in 2012 made life much more difficult for modern parents, and especially for those who do not live at the place of registration with their children. There are several options to ensure that your child enters a specific school:

  1. Registration of temporary registration by territorial affiliation to the school will help you to enter an educational institution without any problems.
  2. Changing the place of permanent registration will also help to enter the desired institution.
  3. If there are no places in educational institutions on the territory of registration, parents have the right to apply to any nearby school.
  4. Many parents see bribery as a way to get to the school they want quickly.

When applying for a temporary residence permit, parents should be aware that a minor citizen under the age of 14 cannot be registered separately from their parents. Hence, when making a temporary registration, you will have to attend to registration for yourself.

In the event of a change in the place of permanent registration, parents need to submit appropriate applications in advance so as not to miss the moment of accepting applications to schools. If the administration openly offers parents the option of bribery for admission, they need to contact lawyers.

Modern legislation clearly states that education in the Russian Federation should be free, and bribes for entering a municipal application should be punished by law!

Sometimes, when a child enters an educational institution, the priority factor is the presence of relatives among the school graduates. If the siblings of the kid have already finished this school or are now studying in it, it will be a little easier for the child to pass the selection.

Papers required for enrollment in first grade


The package of documents required for admission to a particular educational institution has not changed for many years. What kind of papers will be needed to send a baby to first grade?

  1. Birth certificate for the baby.
  2. Parent identification papers.
  3. A special application completed by one of the parents.
  4. Help form 0-26 / U.
  5. Extract from the place of registration of the crumbs.
  6. Child's medical card.

All these papers can be provided both in original form and in the form of copies. Also, with a positive decision on admission, the baby will have to be examined by a psychologist, who will determine the level of the child's abilities and skills.

It is better not to delay the submission of papers., because in good educational institutions sometimes there are not enough places even for those children who are registered on the territory of the school.

In the event that adults apply for admission to the crumbs in specialized gymnasiums, they should be prepared for the fact that a potential student will take entrance tests.

Specialized educational institutions conduct a strict selection of students, choosing only the best among those who passed their qualifying tests (here the issue of territorial attachment practically does not play a role).

Where to go in case of admission to a school outside the place of registration?

The first instance that parents should definitely visit is the school itself. After talking with the director and submitting the relevant application, you will have to wait a bit.

Having received a refusal due to lack of places in the institution (the only legitimate reason for refusal), the parent can apply to the Ministry of Education. His application will be considered only in a few cases:

  1. If there were still places at the time of filing the application, but the papers in this particular case for some reason were ignored (violation of the Federal Law "On Education")
  2. If the school administration openly insisted on a bribe for admission (Violation of constitutional norms).
  3. If the refusal of the municipal institution is associated with the low performance of the child in the tests conducted (only specialized gymnasiums have the right to conduct tests, and municipal schools must take all children).

In case of receipt of a refusal for admission, parents must request the corresponding written document in 2 copies. In the future, this written refusal can be used when applying to the district or city council, as well as when applying to the court.

The adopted law on the predominantly territorial distribution of schoolchildren among educational institutions does not at all mean that the child is obliged to study at the place of registration.

Parents can expect to be admitted to the school they want, but often they have to face treacherous rejection.

In this case, a lawful appeal to state authorities will help in solving the problem.
