Our guidance mission
Valuing
Motivating
and Giving opportunities!
Our learning spaces reflect different approaches
We develop other learning spaces (alongside the traditional school) where young people can learn
- To counter truancy in a broad sense
- To make a possible return to mainstream education possible
- After a prior screening of the candidate through an interview (this pre-screening is mandatory, which means only pre-registrations can take place through this site)
We apply different, pedagogically grounded approaches for:
- Gifted learners (a growing group!)
- Highly sensitive learners
- Learners with ADHD
- Learners with autism and average ability
- Sick young people in the 'DeaDia' project (depression, diabetes, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, …)
- Young people with dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia in the 'Genios' project
- Grade repeaters (young people who fall behind because they also have to redo, at school, subjects they had already passed, and then fail those too — an 18-year-old ending up in a class with 15-year-olds)
- Learners with psychological difficulties resulting from, for example, bullying, fear of failure, the effects of a divorce (where failing at school can be a cry for attention)
- Learners with social and financial difficulties: (intergenerational) poverty, alcohol & drugs (at home, themselves, in their circle of friends, …)
