Transfer of students after the 9th grade, a phenomenon? Over 80 applications in a single high school

The summer holiday between the 9th grade and the 10th grade is the right time when dozens of students at the level of an urban locality, maybe hundreds at the level of a county and certainly thousands at the level of the whole country are transferred from the high school to which they were admitted after the national assessment to another which they wanted from the beginning.

Students decide unneily, at the end of the 9th grade, that they want another photo high school: Shutterstock

The teachers from the high schools from which they are predominantly leaving for the 9th grade draw an alarm, signaling that this year, after changes in the number of students of the study format (the number of students who have not been able to be “from the first” to the desired high school and who will increase will increase.

I have a dilemma! Why is the national evaluation support, if the students can be transferred anywhere and anytime! In my high school there are over 80 requests and they will surely be approved (just like the previous years)! This involves combining classes and affects the classification, which is also difficult in the context of recent changes! I find it useless in the above context! Waste of money and energy! ”, He signals a teacher, on a group of teachers, on a social network.

The comments of those who intervene certify that this is happening in almost all high schools.

As a teacher I say it’s not ok, as a parent I say it’s ok! My child has the right to education, where he is better. What are they prevailing? The good of the staff? The good of the children? I am a teacher. I want the good of the children ”is one of the comments.

You have a correct point of view as a parent, but the high school where the child enters is the result of an evaluation (which could be improved, obviously, but that everyone supports). I think these transfers should have some more clear indicators ”, Another commentator intervenes.

He is entitled to education, but when you enter a high school after a grade X exam and then transfer to a high school where the last average was 2 points higher than your x, is it okay? Isn’t it better to admit the student from the beginning where he likes him or family and we know a job? ”, The problem is put in other terms.

The student is given, but I ask the problem of national assessment. If admission was given directly to high school, it may be better ”, Another internet intervenes with an opinion.

The conditions in which these transfers take place are then taken, the legal procedure assuming that the average of the last income will not be lower than the average of the last student in which he requested the transfer.

“There is also the rule of differences that all promote“, He signals another commentator. Then there are examples of all kinds, including the example of a student transferred by a technological high school to a theological one (in the vocational high schools, before the national evaluation exam, aptitude tests).

„P.Cure from technological high schools, to theoretical high schools, in overcrowded classes ”, finds another teacher, this being quickly sanctioned: “So …? Not everyone is made for math!”

When the discussion reaches this point, other opinions are already gathered in favor of the students.

Mathematics these generations of students from technological high schools. No one sees that ??? Although they have M2, 70% fail to pass (n. Red. – Baccalaureate exam). And not from the fault of the high school teachers, believe me, “explains another internet.” To what they need so much mathematics, I do not understand. another opinion is expressed. “It’s not good! We better reintroduce the second chance, respectively the second step. Let’s teach children that they should deserve their place! ”another person intervenes with another opinion.

Parents are the local heads of education! Money to be, that they show them to the nerds! ”is summarized in another comment how the transfer conditions are often fulfilled.

In another comment, someone else raises the question of respecting the legal conditions (not exceeding the maximum number of students, to respect the average rule, plus the differences, if applicable), and if all these are met, the transfer is accepted. “The child can discover that he does not like the profile, or he does not resonate with the teachers he has at the high school he is, or his colleagues, or … my son has now entered the 9th grade, he had an average so that he could allow him to enter anywhere. He chose a high school at an hour and a few more than the house (I had to go to the house, and I will explains the parent what situations may occur.

The discussion is also reached -how it is possible for a high school to be admitted a student with grades below 5 -, explaining that in such cases, the transfer can be made in such cases.

What are the general conditions for transfer

The transfer of one student from a high school to another educational unit is carried out according to a procedure established by complying with the provisions of the Framework Regulation organization and functioning of the pre-university education units (ROFUIP), approved by the Order of the Minister of Education no. 4183/2022 and subsequent changes.

There are some conditions to be met in order to be possible such a transfer, respectively:

– to have free places in the unit and specialization/class of destination (a rule that can be more easily respected, considering that it is allowed to exceed the maximum number, it has 2024-2025 in the school year was 26 students);

– there is the agreement of both units (origin and destination);

– there is the approval of IŞJ (if the law also provides for this step);

– the school situation is compatible (the student must meet the profile and specialization requirements, so that if he goes from Real to Human, for example, he may need to hold differences in certain disciplines).

The transfer usually takes place on holidays, but can be operated during the school year, in certain special situations, such as: moving the family to another locality, medical reasons, changing parents’ domicile, other special situations, approved by the school inspectorates.

“He goes to the Sports High School, to escape math”

From the high schools to which they enter with small environments obtained at the National Assessment, they leave mainly during the vacation between the 9th and 10th grades. There is even a word among parents, as soon as the result of computerized distribution finds out: “It is not a country end, you pull hard and you get rid of a year, you transfer! ”.

However, they leave even after the 10th grade, especially when high school students who should take the written test in mathematics, at the baccalaureate exam, find in the transfer to the human profile or the vocational profile.

Many do not leave us. He leaves, but later. It is legitimized at a sports club, because only then can they be admitted, and transfer to the high school with a sports program, to escape mathematics ”confirmed, for Adevărul, a director who runs a high school with a technological profile.
