You can hear the following wording from school administration employees: “Children are admitted to the school assigned to the territory of residence.” That is, according to registration.

But rarely, who knows that the continuation of the quote from the Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation sounds as follows: “From August 1 of this year , children who are not assigned to a school, but if there are places available,” can be admitted.

This means that you need to ask in advance if there are free places at the school.

And it’s best to submit an application in advance, justifying your position by the fact that according to the law, the school administration does not have the right to refuse parents to accept documents if there are free places.

What it is

Registration is an outdated legal concept. Currently, this word is used only colloquially; it has no legal basis.

By habit, registration at the place of residence is called registration. Although for almost a quarter of a century this word has been removed from the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Registration at the place of residence can be:

• permanent (at place of residence);
• temporary (at the place of stay).

Children are registered with their parents from 0 to 14 years of age . Parents of a newborn, having received a Birth Certificate, can already register the child.

How to do it: step by step instructions

Temporary registration for admission to a kindergarten or school is carried out according to general rules, according to which parents of a child under 14 years of age must submit originals of the following documents to the migration service department or other authorized body:

• statement;
• child's birth certificate;
• certificate of registration at the parent’s place of residence;
• a document providing the basis for moving in (a lease agreement for living space certified by a notary, an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate for your own home).

A child who has reached the age of 14 draws up an application in his own hand , in the presence of one of the parents. In this case, you will need the teenager’s passport, as well as consent to registration from the parent and an application from the owner who agrees to accept the tenant (what is the danger for the owner of temporary registration of a child?).

In case of registration in a municipal apartment, it is necessary to additionally obtain the consent of local authorities.

All original documents provided are returned to parents along with a certificate of temporary registration.

Legislation

The Federal Law “On Education” does not exclude the territorial principle of selection, that is, by registration. Article 67 of the law formulates the basic principles for the reception of children.

Preference for admission is given to children who live and are not registered in the territory assigned to the school.

But even then, you may be denied if there are no places available, with some exceptions. Children living in another area will be admitted to school only in second place.

What laws protect the right of children to study outside their registration?

Let's consider three legal acts:

• Constitution of Russia Article 5 and 43;
• Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” No. 273, Article 67, paragraph 3;
• Letter from the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation from 1999 “Recommendations for the education of children of refugees and migrants.”

All regulatory documents can be combined.

The main theses are:

• condition - availability of free places;
• preference is given to those who are registered at their place of residence or stay.

In order to have more chances, the application must be submitted in advance.

Is temporary registration required for schools and kindergartens, when and for what?

Most parents seek to enroll their child in a kindergarten or school that is closest to their place of residence or work. Due to workload, first of all, children who have temporary or permanent registration in the area where the educational organization is located are admitted there.

In accordance with the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation” and Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation No. 293, one of the requirements for priority admission to a preschool institution is registration at the location of the institution. Whether it is temporary or permanent does not matter.

Each preschool institution is assigned a certain residential area, and preschoolers living there have the right to enter kindergarten first.

The same applies to schools. Order No. 32 of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation approved the priority order for the enrollment in schools of children registered in the adjacent territory. Those who do not have temporary registration in the region where the educational institution is located can apply for enrollment in the second place.

It is allowed to submit documents confirming registration to the preschool institution in rented housing.

Law on the admission of children to general education institutions

The admission procedure is established by the legislation of the Russian Federation, as well as local and regional regulations.

Admission rules and benefits are regulated not only by the Law “On Education” .

The admission procedure is based on ensuring compulsory education.

An order of the Ministry of Education and Science from the beginning of 2014 approved the procedure for admitting children to general education institutions.

According to the document, admission can be denied only if there are more applicants to the school than there are places.

If there are no places, the child’s parents must contact the local administration regarding placement in another school.

You need to contact the executive authority that heads the education sector.

The question is interesting: if the registration is in one district of the city, and the registration of the place of residence is in another district of the same city,

We are not accepted into the school at our place of registration due to lack of places; the education department offers a school in another area, but this school option does not suit us.

Homeworker child. PMPC was sent to a boarding school. For three years we went to school for lessons.

The eldest son is not accepted into school according to his registration, citing the fact that there are no places!

The first child goes to school, the youngest child is not accepted, there are no places and registration is not in the area, what to do.

What is the probability of acceptance

If we summarize the cited regulations, it turns out that the main selection criteria (without affecting exceptions) are the availability of places and residence at the place of residence. These conditions are equivalent.

Residence does not have to mean registration at the place of residence; it can be a temporary option.

Documentary proof of residence in the territory that belongs to the desired school is required. How, otherwise, can you prove the truth of your words?

In practice, the administration conventionally divides children entering school into several categories.

1. First of all , they take those whose permanent registration coincides with the boundaries of the coverage of this educational institution.
2. The second is for those who live and are temporarily registered here.
3. Further - according to desire and availability of free places.

How to enroll children in first grade:

Enrollment is carried out in 3 stages.

• Stage 1 - for children who have priority enrollment rights (if older brothers and sisters, children of police officers, military personnel, if the parent works at this school, are already studying at the selected school). Applications are accepted from December 15th.
• Stage 2 - for those living in the assigned territory. Applications are accepted from January 20 to June 30.
• Stage 3 - for those who do not live in the assigned territory. Acceptance of applications from July 1.

Each school has a list of streets and house numbers that are assigned to a particular school.
You can find out which school you belong to via the Internet, in the education department, and at the school itself. It happens that one side of the street belongs to one school, and the other to another. Streets are assigned according to the “yard” principle. According to SanPiN in the city, the distance to school should be no more than 500 m, for first-graders no more than 400 m. In villages for high school students the distance is no more than 4 km, for junior grades no more than 2.

Required documents and admission procedure

In order for a child to be accepted into 1st grade, you need to collect the following documents:

• birth certificate;
• an application filled out by one of the parents;
• passport of the parent who filled out the application;
• child's medical record in form 0-26/U ;
• document confirming the place of registration.

The application in accordance with the Order of the Ministry of Education and Science can be submitted electronically. an example here.

The application (regardless of the form) contains the following information:

• Child's full name;
• Date and place of birth;
• Full name of parents;
• address;
• parents' telephone numbers.

The papers along with the application must be taken to the school. After the decision to accept the child, a psychological study will follow to determine the child's abilities.

Applications for 1st grade are accepted in schools from approximately February to early July .

All documents and their copies are recorded in a journal. Parents receive a registration number and a receipt for receiving documents. Orders for admission to school are posted on special information boards on the day of its release. A personal file is opened where all documents are stored.

Registration for school or kindergarten

Schooling in any country in the world is compulsory and guaranteed by the state. In the Russian Federation, the question often arises about whether it is possible to enroll a child in school if the child is not registered at the place of residence. What does the legislation tell us in this case? And can the school refuse to admit if the temporary registration of the minor is not provided? We will answer these questions and many others that are related to school enrollment and registration of minors.

At the end of August 2020, the Supreme Court of Russia introduced adjustments to the process of admitting children to kindergarten and school. Now a child can be accepted simply with a birth certificate, this is the main document.

Anyone who is interested in the question of how to place a child in a kindergarten without registration should know that, in accordance with current legislation, refusal to admit a child to an educational institution is contrary to the Constitution.

There is a law according to which the lack of registration or its inconsistency with the place of residence is not grounds for refusal. Therefore, placing a child in kindergarten without local registration is very simple, in theory. All children living in the country have the right to education. That is, in such cases you need to know how to report a violation to the relevant authorities.

However, in practice, it is very often quite difficult to get a job at a school without registration at its location. Russian schools simply refuse to accept children, especially for migrants. Therefore, when answering the question of how to enroll a child in school without registration, you should first understand the legislation.

Sometimes, when moving out of a hostel or apartment, it is necessary to report this to the tax office in order to maintain registration. A child may find himself without registration only if he was not registered anywhere immediately after birth. When deregistering from your previous place of registration, you must notify the tax office about the change of residence, and then obtain permanent registration.

In order not to be refused at your chosen school or kindergarten, it is still better to make a temporary registration if there is a permanent one in another place, and also if it is not possible to make a permanent one.

Preference in schools is always given to children living in the same area. Only after receiving children living in this area are children who do not live here taken care of. That is, a child enters a kindergarten or school only if there are free places left. This is worth remembering for anyone who is interested in how to place a child in kindergarten without registration.

How to find out if temporary registration will help? It is an excellent option if the family has moved to another city, that is, changed their place of residence. If the temporary registration turns out to be at an address next to the permanent one, this will raise suspicions.

A child under 14 years old can only be registered together with one of the parents. That is, you first need to find a property owner who will allow you to include an adult too. Temporary registration can be obtained from the Russian registration authority, but it is not necessary to contact the tax office. How to find out the period of registration? It is individual and negotiated with the owner of the apartment. Such registration does not require deregistration; at the end of its period, the person is simply deregistered.

To obtain temporary registration, you need a passport of one of the parents, a child’s birth certificate, a rental agreement or a certificate of ownership, that is, any document confirming the right to reside in the apartment.

How to get there without registration

Sometimes the school that parents choose is far from their place of registration. We will tell you further about how you can get there.

What can help

If you want to enroll your children in school without registration, you must:

1. Submit your application as early as possible.
2. Prepare a description.
   

   If the child did well in kindergarten and has some diplomas, then this can be an advantage.

3. Apply to several schools you like.
4. 5-7 days after receiving a positive response, immediately confirm your consent.

Some use tricks. To be in second place when entering school, parents apply for a temporary registration for their child. Until the age of 14, this can only be done at the place of registration of the parents.

For military personnel

According to the Federal Law of the Russian Federation of 2009 No. 34 “On the status of military personnel ,” which came into force in March of the same year, children of military personnel are given places in schools as a matter of priority.

By the way, not only in schools. Children of military personnel have an advantage when enrolling in kindergarten, as well as in summer camps.

How to enroll your child in school in another city

In order to place a child without registration in another city, you need to contact the local administration department, which manages general educational institutions. They will help you choose the best option for your place of residence.

Do not forget that despite the lack of permanent registration, they do not have the right to refuse you.

But there may be no places left in schools for those who do not have any registration. And this is already a good reason for refusal. Therefore, it is best to apply for temporary registration using Form-8 . It will take no more than a week.

By law, documents are required to be issued within 6 days .

How to obtain temporary registration for a child?

Registration for a minor under 14 years of age can only be done at the place of registration of one of the parents. This means that the legal representative must temporarily register with the child. From the age of 14, a teenager can be registered alone (Civil Code of the Russian Federation, Article 20, paragraph 2).

Where to contact?

The citizen, together with the owner, applies to one of the registration authorities in:

• Directorate for Migration Issues under the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
• MFC;
• passport office at the management company, homeowners association.

Another way is to submit an application through the State Services portal. To do this, the parent must have a verified account on this site.

Step-by-step instructions for registering a child under 14 years of age through State Services (in the example, one of the parents has a temporary registration):

1. Visit the official website of State Services - https://www.gosuslugi.ru
2. Log in to your personal account.
3. After entering the top menu, click the button “class=”aligncenter” width=”1345″ height=”897″[/img]
4. In the catalog, find the section “Passports, registrations, visas” and click on the phrase “Registration of citizens”.

   

5. Next, select “Registration at your place of residence.”

   

6. On the left, click the “Get class=”aligncenter” width=”886″ height=”591″[/img] icon
7. Next, fill out the fields following the system prompts.

   

After receiving notification of the reviewed application, you need to visit the registration authority and provide a package of documents in the original, and you can immediately pick up the child’s registration certificate at the place of stay.

If the parent has temporary registration, then the consent of the property owner to register the child at the same address is not required. If the parent is not registered at the address, he must first register himself. But here the consent of the owner of the living space must be obtained, in addition, he must appear for the submission of documents in person, together with you.

Required documents

To register at your place of residence, you need to prepare the following documents:

• application on special form No. 1;
• parent's passport;
• child's birth certificate;
• if the parents have different places of registration or are not married, the consent of the second parent will be required for the child’s registration;
• act of the guardianship authority, if a guardian has been appointed.

When sending an application through the State Services portal, you will need to attach copies of documents.

Terms and cost of registration

The service is provided free of charge. Time allotted for registration:

• 3 working days from the date of receipt of documents are given to the registration authority for registration of registration;
• 8 working days are required to consider the application if the owner of the living space does not present documents confirming his ownership of the housing (when registering a child together with a parent).

Interesting article: Registration of an individual entrepreneur with temporary registration

The deadlines may be extended at the request of the applicant or the accounting authority if there are compelling reasons. For example, the applicant cannot appear on time due to circumstances beyond his control, or it is necessary to provide missing documents, make clarifications, etc.

For what period of time should I register?

Clause 10 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated July 17, 1995 No. 713 states that the period of temporary registration is approved by mutual agreement between the owner of the property and his tenant. It is recommended to obtain a temporary registration for a school for at least 1 academic year.

If a citizen is registered in connection with a rental agreement, then his temporary registration will coincide with the period of rental housing. In your own home you can make a temporary registration for any period.

The period of validity of the temporary registration of a child and his parent is the same. After this period, they are required to leave the premises. Living at this address will no longer be legal.

What to do for refugees

Refugee parents have the right to send their child to school regardless of registration. The main condition will be the availability of free places. You can apply to several schools at once within walking distance of your place of residence.

But it would be more effective to contact the child’s parents with the municipal education authorities, who will offer several schools to choose from.

In order to confirm their status, parents are required to present a refugee certificate.

The list of documents presented by refugees does not differ from those of those who are citizens of the Russian Federation.

Additionally presented:

Why do you need registration when enrolling in school?

Admission of students is carried out on a territorial basis, that is, nearby houses are assigned to the school. Children registered in the territory related to a specific school have a priority right to enrollment in an educational institution.

Information about territorial affiliation can be obtained:

• from the director of the selected school;
• on the official website of the educational organization;
• on the district administration website.

At the beginning of each year, a new decree is issued on the distribution of school areas in the district.

Order of the Ministry of Education and Science No. 32 defines the following list of documents required to be submitted when admitting a child to school:

• a statement from the parent indicating the child’s place of residence;
• his birth certificate;
• a document confirming his registration in a house located in the zone assigned to this institution.

Deadlines for admission of minor citizens:

• permanent residents of a fixed territory (including those with temporary registration) - from February 1 to June 30;
• registered in another district of the city, locality without temporary registration in school-owned areas - from July 1 to September 5.

The enrollment process lasts until the available places are filled. Further, the school administration refuses enrollment regardless of the child’s place of residence.

If the child does not get a place, the parent has the right to contact the authorities responsible for the field of education (Law No. 273-FZ, Article 67, paragraph 4). The child must be sent to the nearest school where there is a shortage of students.
