Registration for admission to a grammar school (transition 4 to 5)

You have the choice between high school and grammar school. Choosing the type of school is a responsible decision in which you will be supported by the school. For this reason, your elementary school offers you parent-teacher conferences at the half-year change of the 4th grade. Take advantage of this opportunity to have your child's prerequisites for learning in lower secondary school explained to you by the teachers and to discuss in detail the advantages and disadvantages of the individual types of school for your child's further school career. At the same time, you as parents have the opportunity to describe how you yourself assess your child. You also know your child from other life situations and naturally associate the choice for your child with wishes and hopes for the further school career.

It is up to you to decide which type of school is suitable for your child. However, you must have participated in the counseling interview offered. Your participation in the counseling session is mandatory. If you do not participate in the counseling session, the elementary school will assign your child to a school type.
