School transition information checklist

Everything a new school will ask for, gathered before you need it: reports, samples, support plans and exam entries, in one printable checklist.

What the checklist covers

Changing schools, whether across Bali or across the world, runs on documents. The families who find it easy are the ones who requested everything before leaving, because retrieving school records from another country afterwards is slow and sometimes impossible.

Below is the complete printable content: a tick-box list in four sections, covering general records, SEN and EAL documentation, and exam entries. Request items from the current school six to eight weeks before departure, and keep paper and digital copies of everything.

Records section

The general file every moving family should carry:

The reasoning behind each item, and how a new school reads them, is in our guide to school records for an international move. One habit pays for the whole checklist: ask for digital copies of everything, and email yourself the complete set before moving day.

SEN and EAL section

If your child has had any learning support, this section is the one to complete in full. SEN means special educational needs; EAL means English as an additional language.

Assessment reports are slow and expensive to repeat, so carry originals digitally and on paper, and share them with the new school early rather than waiting to be asked. Sharing early is also what allows support to continue without a gap, because the new school’s learning team can plan before your child’s first day rather than after the first difficulty.

Exam entries

For students in examination years, add:

Mid-course moves in the final two school years are genuinely difficult because these components accumulate. If that is your situation, read changing school mid-year without losing continuity before finalising dates.
