Dear [Name of Head Teacher / Headmaster / Headmistress],

Request for a Change of Class - FIRST LAST

We refer to our child's allocation to Class MOVE_TO of your school. We were somewhat surprised and disappointed that FIRST has not been enrolled in Class MOVE_FROM, which is our top choice.  

FIRST has been taking SUBJECT since grade (x) and has excelled in the subject. In particular, [he/she] has a keen interest in SUBJECT and thus we deemed it important that [he/she] takes the Advanced SUBJECT in [his/her] senior year as part of the curriculum for the Class MOVE_TO. We would like to request that FIRST be allowed to take the Advanced SUBJECT class just like the other regular senior sections. Moreover, as FIRST has been gearing towards taking [Science / Art / Humanities] subjects in college and of which an Advanced SUBJECT in Class MOVE_TO would be of great advantage and use. On the contrary, FIRST has very little interest in the [OTHER SUBJECTS] in Class MOVE_FROM and is unlikely to distinguish [himself / herself] academically. 

As such, we would like to plea for you to kindly reconsider in moving FIRST from Class MOVE_FROM to Class MOVE_TO. While academic and extra-curricular records are fundamental qualities of a student, we believe a key distinguish factor is the interest of the student.  For the last few years, our child has immersed [himself / herself] in SUBJECT.  While winning and ranking are hard core measures of success, [Name of current school] always stresses the importance of interest in learning. With that mentality, we believe our child is a good fit for the curriculum of Class MOVE_TO.
