My child is attending junior high school in his hometown. If he has social security and residence permit in Hefei, can he transfer to Hefei to attend junior high school?

If you have social security and residence permit, you can study in a junior high school elsewhere.

However, it is generally required to return to the place of household registration to take the high school entrance examination, within the same province. Students from other places cannot take the college entrance examination and are considered immigrants for the college entrance examination. Junior high schools are available within this city, but other counties and cities have different policies. For specific information, it is best to go to the admissions office in your local place of residence to inquire. Determined according to local policies.
