Start talk<\/h3>\n

At the start of the school year, the school can hold a start or introduction talk. During this talk, you meet the teacher or mentor of your child. Sometimes the school also invites your child to be present at the start talk. This way you start the school year together in a nice way.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"Start conversation","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/en\/start-conversation\/","target":""},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"extra_inhoud_blok","inhoud":"

Parent evening or information evening<\/h3>\n

For a parent evening, the school often invites all parents. The director, teacher, or mentor gives practical information about the school year. During a parent evening, you can meet other parents, ask questions, or talk with the teacher.<\/p>\n

Sometimes a parent evening has a specific theme, like bullying<\/a> or social media. Usually, the school then invites someone to talk about this topic.<\/p>\n

10-minute talk<\/h3>\n

During a 10-minute talk, you discuss how your child is doing at school. This talk is with the teacher, mentor, or subject teacher of your child. It is not only about your child’s grades but also about how your child feels in class.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"10-minute conversation","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/en\/10-minute-conversation\/","target":""},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"extra_inhoud_blok","inhoud":"

Other parent talks with school<\/h3>\n

Sometimes there is another reason to have a talk at school. For example, if you have a complaint<\/a> about the school or if your child needs extra support. The mentor or teacher of your child contacts you for a talk, or you ask for a talk yourself.<\/p>\n

In some situations, the internal support coordinator, care coordinator, school leader<\/a> or the partnership tailored education<\/a> is involved. It is important to prepare well for these parent talks at school.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"Your child is not doing well at school","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/en\/your-child-is-not-doing-well-at-school\/","target":""},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"extra_inhoud_blok","inhoud":"

How do you have a conversation at school?<\/h3>\n

Good preparation is half the work. Here are some tips for preparing parent meetings:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Talk with your child beforehand about how school is going and write down what you want to ask, tell, or raise.<\/li>\n
  • Ask questions during the meeting if you do not understand something. Write down new agreements.<\/li>\n
  • Do not forget to write down the follow-up appointment. After the meeting, make a short summary for yourself. This way you keep an overview.<\/li>\n
  • It is important to keep your child informed about the meetings at school. Tell your child in a way that suits them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"knop","knop":{"title":"Meer tips voor gesprekken op school","url":"https:\/\/oudersenonderwijs.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Kopie-van-Tips-voor-gesprekken-op-school.pdf","target":"_blank"},"kleur":"primary"},{"acf_fc_layout":"faq","selecteer_faq":"Gesprekken op school"}],"samenvatting":"School organizes regular talks with you as a parent.
