Arrange a school enrollment examination
Description
Before your child is allowed to go to school, he or she must be examined by a public health officer.
During a school enrolment examination, tests are carried out on speech, motor skills (movement) and knowledge in order to assess your child's level of development.
The doctor will examine your child physically and carry out a hearing and eye test. The school medical examination is required by law.
Registration must be completed by March 1st of the year prior to school enrolment at the relevant elementary school. The registration dates are announced by the municipal administrations or the administration of the unified municipalities via the press or via the children's facilities.
In the year before school enrolment, there is always an official medical examination by the children's and youth medical service of the public health department. You will be informed of the examination date when you register at the school or directly by the youth medical service.
