The school provides the pupils with all the materials and login details that they need for the lessons. However, pupils are required to bring their own sports kit for physical education lessons.

INDIVIDUAL SUPPORT WITH HOMEWORK

Pupils can receive individual homework support from a tutor. The tutors are enthusiastic students from Wageningen University. The support can be arranged for Friday afternoons or Saturday mornings.

PARENTS’ EVENINGS

Each year we organize a parents’ evening during which all parents/guardians of the pupils at Pantarijn can meet one another. These evenings are also attended by the pupils themselves. An interpreter is provided for each language. During the parents’ evening, we explain more about the teaching methods at ISK and we also discuss the Dutch educational system. You have the opportunity to ask questions and to get to know the other parents/guardians as well as the classmates of your child/children. We consider it to be very important that you know what your son/daughter is learning and doing at school!
