State Schools in Tenerife - application documentation
|
|
As my own daughter has just started State school here in Tenerife, I
thought it might be helpful to give you a list of documentation required. The forms
and information you will receive prior to applying to have your child enrolled are all
in Spanish.
- Present the form together with a photocopy
- Applying to more than one state schools may be motivation to have your
applications cancelled.
- Falsifying information on the form will result in the cancellation of your
application and the loss of rights to reapply.
- Insufficient information will not be assessed.
1. Domicilio (Proof of Residence): supply one of the following:
- A photocopy of the NIE of the child or his parents, to be compared with the
original by the school office.
- Certificate of residence, in which the present residence is evident.
- Certificate of Empadronamiento (Census certificate from the town hall).
- Census cards of the parents
- Labour contract or social security slips or photocopies which include the
telephone number of the workplace. If parents live seperately, then you must
indicate which of the parents have legal custody.
Clearly, that is a lot of paperwork. Remember that you need provide only one of the
above - most likely your NIE papers.
2. Declaration de la Renta:
Tax declaration corresponding with the last fiscal year.
3. Photocopy of the Libro de Familia (family book) or Partida de Nacimiento (birth
certificate), accompanied with the original.
4. Vaccination card or medical certificate.
(In order to get the medical certificate you can buy a form called Certificado Medico
from any stationers and take it with you when you see the doctor. She or he will stamp
and sign it as well as making any notes about your childīs existing health that he
feels the school should know.)
5. Photocopy of the childīs Social Security card or papers.
6. Two photographs of the child (passport size)
- You will be given the option whether or not you want your child to receive
religious education.
- In order to apply, you should find out from your local state school when you can
pick up the application form. Pay attention to the dates on the form as it will tell
you when you must return it together with all documents. It will also tell you when
you can go to see the provisional and definitive enrollment lists.
