OBS at a Glance

All the important information at a glance.

PROMOTING SELF-EFFICACY

As a place of learning for life, the school encourages learners to take responsibility and pursue their learning path in a self-determined way.

RELATIONSHIPS AT EYE LEVEL

Learning is a joint process in which learners and learning facilitators work together, creating space for personal relationships, participation and mistakes.

INCORPORATING DIGITALISATION

Digitalisation has a significant impact on the potential and skills of learners and is reflected in how we learn.

PROMOTING COMPETENCES

We believe that the classic canon of school subjects needs to be updated. Evaluating information across disciplines and finding creative solutions are today’s critical skills.

STRENGTHENING WELLBEING

A school is a place of social and emotional development. The foundations and skills for mental and emotional well-being are developed here. Our Wellbeing programme encourages a student’s sense of value as an individual, their responsibility towards others and their ability to make increasingly good decisions that will stand them in good stead now, and in their future.

LISTENING TO LEARNERS

Students are very good at judging what learning is beneficial to them. Involving them in learning planning increases motivation for everyone involved.

INCLUSIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS

We create learning environments that create students who are comfortable, confident take risks, and aren’t afraid to make mistakes. Individualised learning motivates and is particularly important for the undisturbed development of skills and competencies.

LIFELONG LEARNING

Learning is a key competence. This also applies to our teachers, who maintain their curiosity and undergo continuous professional and pedagogical development.

AGILE APPROACH

The future starts now and demands flexible, adaptable, collaborative, creative and networked individuals. To achieve this, we need a change in learning culture.
