The last school enrollment stage at the end

The last enrollment stage for the preparatory and first class ends Friday.

At least at theoretical level all children that were not included in any school unit during the three previous enrollment stages should find what school they attend since autumn.

All this process that started wrongly at the beginning of March was contested by parents and aggravated by the soft errors from the Ministry.

Once the enrollments end, the problems still continue.

Some schools have too many children assigned and there is no space, while others do not lack of classrooms, but children.

So the solution that the officials think for the moment is to organize the classes in many shifts or to bring in the same classroom children from different years of study.

Parents, often with the children by the hand, wait at queues in the schoolyard to enter the committee that will clarify how the enrollment has to be made.

The main preoccupation of parents is now to have their children assigned some place, no matter where, not taking into account the fact that in autumn they will not know who will be their teacher, and there is no difference compared to parents who have enrolled their children in the first stage, between 5-16 March.

Then, were received in schools children whose address was ascribed to another school.
In order to see their children enrolled at a school, many parents have changed their addresses only in papers.

Moreover, based on a statement at the scrivener through which they declared their German ethnicity, some parents went to German language schools from the capital or other cities.

As many parents have confessed, most of them did not accept to be recorded by us , it was not eliminated the well-known “gift”.
