Uitlegvideo passend onderwijs voor ouders (Engels)

*Music is playing in the background* Lisa appears. Lisa: Hello, I'm Lisa. My daughter receives tailored education. On-screen text: Lisa Tailored education Lisa: As a parent with a child getting tailored education, you'll have to deal with a lot. Various texts appear in the background behind Lisa. Lisa: I will try to explain some of it in this video. I'm aware it will be a lot of often difficult information. If you need more information after watching this video, apply to your child's school... or a parent and youth support centre for tailored education in your region. On-screen text: More information > At your child’s school > Parent and youth support centre for tailored education in your region > www.rijksoverheid.nl/passendonderwijs Lisa: Tailored education information for parents On-screen text: Tailored education information for parents Lisa: Every child has a right to education, and so does yours. On-screen text: Does your child have > Dyslexia > Trouble concentrating > A visual, speech or hearing impairment > Intellectually gifted > Something else? Lisa: Is your child dyslexic or does it have trouble concentrating? Is it visually, speech- or hearing-impaired? Or is it intellectually gifted? Whatever the situation, your child too is entitled to education that's suited to them. This is referred to as 'tailored education'. On-screen text: Tailored education Lisa: Schools have to offer tailored education. It's their so-called 'duty of care'. On-screen text: Duty of care Lisa: This duty of care starts from the moment you register your child at the school. This could potentially be several weeks before your child's first schoolday. When you register your child at a school, you will be asked a lot of questions. The school uses your answers to ensure your child will be properly placed... and will receive the support it needs. The school can ask you permission to get information elsewhere. You're not obliged to answer every question or to give permission. Think about what you want. You can ask the school to provide more explanation. If you think your child needs extra help, let the school know when you register it. The school cannot refuse your child because of this. After the child has been registered the school has 6 to 10 weeks... to investigate what support your child needs, and whether it can provide it itself. If it can't, the school has to help you find another school that is able to provide it. You don't have to do this alone. Is your child already at school and does it need extra help or support... the school has a duty to provide this. It might draw up a plan for this. This is called a 'Developmental perspective’. On-screen text: Developmental perspective Lisa: This development plan has two elements: the follow-up profile and the practical part. On-screen text: Developmental perspective > Follow-up profile > Practical part Lisa: The follow-up profile describes what your child could do after it finishes this school. The practical part describes the help your child will receive. You and the school have to agree on this. You have the 'right of consent'. On-screen text: Right of consent Lisa: The school has to show you the content of their Developmental perspective. If the school is unable to help your child it declares itself 'incapable to act'. On-screen text: Incapable to act Lisa: But even then, the school retains its duty of care. It still has to help you find a school that is suited to your child's needs. This might be a school for either Special Education or Special primary education. On-screen text: Special primary education > For children with light learning difficulties > Smaller classes > Extra support > Children learn the same things as on a regular primary school Lisa: Special primary education is for children with light learning difficulties... such as concentration issues. Classes tend to be smaller and extra support is provided. Pupils learn the same things as on a regular primary school. On-screen text: Special education > For children with more severe learning problems > Behavioural problems > For children who have difficulty hearing, seeing or speaking Lisa: Special education is for children with more severe learning or behavioural problems... and children with a physical disability. Both Special education and Special primary education… require a so-called 'Declaration of admissibility’. On-screen text: Declaration of admissibility Lisa: For this, the school applies to the Samenwerkingsverband. On-screen text: Samenwerkingsverband Lisa: This is a partnership of schools that provide tailored education in your region. Without this statement a school cannot register your child. You can object to the partnership's decision on this if you don't agree with it. You can find more information on the website Onderwijsgeschillen.nl. On-screen text: www.onderwijsgeschillen.nl Lisa: Always discuss your child's transfer to or from special education with the school. Why does it feel your child needs to change schools, or why do you want this? Has everything been tried to help your child? Do you both agree on this step? If both parties can agree, it's very reassuring. I hope you have found my information helpful.
