Not all parents agree that it is necessary to study at the lyceum from the 1st grade. The load on the child in such schools is very large, which can undermine his health and desire to receive knowledge. Therefore, parents often send their children to middle or even senior classes of the lyceum. For admission to this type of educational institution, future students will have to pass a series of tests.

To begin with, it should be noted that the lyceum has a mathematical, physical or natural-scientific, and not a humanitarian bias. Educational institutions with a humanitarian bias are called gymnasiums. Therefore, before identifying a child in a lyceum, look at his preferences in school subjects - does he like physics and mathematics, is he given chemistry and biology. If this is all right - choose the right educational institution that is suitable for location, form of training, cost and other characteristics.

To transfer to the lyceum, the student will need to have good success in various school subjects and a high average score of all grades. As a rule, first of all, when accepting documents, it is the average score that is evaluated, so if this score is low, students may not be allowed to the next tests.

In addition, in the lyceums, the student’s personal merits in various subjects, his participation in olympiads, school conferences, and educational contests can be evaluated. Such merits and activity of lyceum students are very fond of and appreciated from the teacher. If a child is a winner of district, regional or all-Russian Olympiads, then he has the right to enter the lyceum out of competition.

The enrollment in many lyceums is so great that they open a competition only for applicants in grades 1, 5 or 10. But this is not a firm rule, so you can find out in a particular educational institution whether they have a place in another class. As a rule, documents for admission to the lyceum begin to be accepted at the end of April or in May, when it becomes clear how many students are required to enroll in the new school year.

Entrance tests are carried out in different forms depending on the specifics and orientation of the lyceum. So, for students entering the middle classes, you will need to write a test in mathematics and a dictation in the Russian language. For ninth-graders who wish to continue their studies at the lyceum from grade 10, they will need a GIA certificate with grades in mathematics, the Russian language and the subject of the lyceum or class in which the student enters. Also, he will most likely be asked to write a test paper on a specific subject in the lyceum itself. The list of entrance examinations is determined by the leadership of each lyceum independently, therefore, it is necessary to clarify the conditions for admission in a particular educational institution.

Studying at the Lyceum is difficult, especially at the beginning, when the student goes there after a comprehensive school. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare the child for a responsible attitude towards studying in a new institution for him. Indeed, the successes of each student in lyceums are monitored quite strictly. And if the average child’s score drops below a certain mark, the student may even be asked to change their educational institution.
