Transfer and continuation of education

Internally displaced children have the right to continue their education at Ukrainian general secondary education institutions regardless of their previous place of residence.

How to transfer a child to another school or continue their education:

• Choose a general secondary education institution at the child’s actual place of residence or stay and check whether places are available.
• A parent or legal representative submits an application to transfer or enroll the child.
• If possible, provide documents relating to previous studies: a certificate of achievement, report card or other documents showing grades.
• Wait for the transfer and enrollment at the new educational institution to be processed.
• If the child studied abroad, parents may provide documents showing the results of their studies at the foreign educational institution. If necessary, the school will help determine the appropriate grade and the arrangements for continuing their education.
