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

Request for Allocation to Class MOVE_TO - FIRST LAST

Our child FIRST will be entering MOVE_TO in the incoming academic year. We understand that it is the time of the year for class allocation. We are writing to request that FIRST be placed into the top class for the incoming school year.  

FIRST has outstanding academic records at [School], with marks ranging from 80's to 90's for all his/her subjects. He/She has been among the top scoring students in SUBJECT. FIRST has been [class monitor] and [school prefect]. [He/She is in STEM gifted class and will attend the STEM summer camp this summer.]

He/She received conduct award and he/she has only taken one sick leave and one leave day (for violin exam) and zero late record this academic year.

In particular, FIRST has a keen interest in reading and learning, he/she frequently visited the school library during recess times and is an enthusiastic learner. Thus we deemed it important that he/she be placed in a quieter class with an environment conducive to learning. Moreover, FIRST tends to excel in a more competitive environment with peers at a similar academic level as him/her.  

While winning and ranking are hard core measures of success, [School] always stresses the importance of interest in learning. We believe FIRST is a better fit in a class with more like-minded students and can positively influence the culture of the class.
