This can be about different topics like an impression of the atmosphere, educational topics (mission, vision, norms and values), subject packages and practical information, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/school-organisatie\/algemene-informatie-over-de-school\/schoolgids\/\">School guide<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Contact details<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/school-organisatie\/klachten\/de-klachtenregeling-op-school\/\">Complaint procedure<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/passend-onderwijs\/ondersteuning-op-een-reguliere-school\/schoolondersteuningsprofiel\/\">School support profile<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/examens\/pta-examenreglement\/\">Exam regulations<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Student statute<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Newsletter<\/h3>\n<p>Many schools send a newsletter to parents. Through the newsletter you stay informed about recent developments and events at school, such as changes in the school building, events or activities, and what will happen in the class during this period.<\/p>\n<p>Ask the school if and where you can sign up for the newsletter. Often schools send this automatically.<\/p>\n<h3>Parent app<\/h3>\n<p>A popular way to communicate with you as a parent is a parent app. Commonly used apps are for example Parro, Social Schools, Quebble or Magister.<\/p>\n<p>With a parent app the school keeps you informed about your child&#8217;s education. For example, by sending photos, sharing your child&#8217;s grades, scheduling appointments, and keeping you informed about absent teachers or <a href=\"https:\/\/wp-staging.oudersenonderwijs.nl\/kennisbank\/school-organisatie\/schooltijden\/lesuitval\/\" rel=\"\">lesson cancellations<\/a>.
