Communication with parents

Weekly report
A weekly report is published at the end of every week which is prepared according to certain parameters.
Oral feedback
Provided every day by the main teachers or every week by the operations administrator.
Monthly report
Parents receive a monthly report at the end of every month which contains detailed information about their child’s development, interests, manifestations and success. Teachers and specialists give their recommendations on what to consider when communicating with the child at home.
Electronic feedback
Every parent receives a password to access their child’s personal profile. It contains a weekly food menu, photos from different events and experiences of the child, information about upcoming events and holidays of the group, as well as interesting facts and articles related to children’s education, health and upbringing.
Every child is monitored throughout the year. Parents can have a personal meeting with the headmaster, manager, communication manager or psychologist three times a year who will summarise the available results from all specialists and teachers.
Open class days are organised once a year on which parents can optionally attend and directly observe the activities in the kindergarten. We promote positive relationships between parents and teachers. This is how we create the best positive environment for our children.
