Online Registration for School Entrance Examinations Now Available
The Leipzig City Health Department has announced that online registration for the school entrance examinations for the 2026/27 school year is now available citywide. This annual examination, which takes place in the year before starting school, from September to January, aims to identify any potential support or therapy needs at an early stage.
The examination includes assessments of vision, hearing, motor skills, language, perception, concentration, socio-emotional development, and vaccination status. It is a prerequisite for starting school in Leipzig City.
To register, parents are advised to access the homepage of the children and youth medical service of the Leipzig City Health Department at [www.leipzig.de/vorsorge-gesundheitsamt]. The information letter regarding the registration process has already been sent out.
While specific details about the online registration process for this year are not yet available, general knowledge of German school administrative procedures suggests that the process would involve creating a user account or logging into a parental portal, filling out personal information about the child, selecting the preferred school(s) for the entrance examination, and uploading required documents such as proof of residence, birth certificate, and possibly prior schooling or kindergarten records.
Parents are encouraged to consult the official Leipzig city education website or contact the Leipzig school administration directly for exact and updated instructions. Procedures and deadlines can vary by year and school type.
Appointments for the school entrance examination should be made before registering at the primary school. It is important to note that the registration process is for children.
In 2024, a pilot project was conducted in the southwest school district with two municipal primary schools to test online registration for the school entrance examination at the health department. This initiative seems to have been a success, leading to the citywide implementation for the 2026/27 school year.
After the school entrance examination, the results are discussed with the parents, questions are answered, and recommendations are made. This is an opportunity for parents to gain a better understanding of their child's developmental status and to plan for any necessary support or therapy needs.
In conclusion, the Leipzig City Health Department is preparing for the school entrance examinations for the 2026/27 school year, with online registration now available. Parents are advised to visit the official Leipzig city education website or contact the school administration directly for the most accurate and up-to-date information about the registration process.
