What Is a Change of Teacher Request Form Template?

Different teachers have different styles. Sometimes a student struggles with one teacher but excels with another, even though they’re teaching the same content. Schools want students to be successful, so if this is happening, they want to address it.

The first step might be a meeting with the family, student, teacher, and guidance counselor to discuss what’s working and what’s not. If the teacher makes reasonable accommodations for the student but the student continues to struggle, it might be time for the parent to request a change of teacher.

That’s where this change of teacher request form template comes in.

It asks the parent or guardian to provide some information about the current class and teacher, as well as whether or not the parent has a specific teacher in mind for the switch.

Although this helps to create a record of the request and begin the process, you probably want to avoid people abusing the form to make unnecessary changes. For that reason, the form includes a statement to which the parent or guardian must agree. It states that the change is not guaranteed, but merely a request.

The WPForms drag-and-drop form builder is easy to use, so if you find that the template would better suit your needs with a few changes, you can make those updates in a matter of seconds. No coding experience necessary.
