The municipality encourages cooperation between childcare organisations and educational institutions (see The Hague Educational Agenda 2022-2026, RIS311077). For this reason, preference is given to a childcare organisation that has an integrated personnel policy.

A child grows up and develops in three lifeworlds: school, neighbourhood and home. If these life worlds are better connected, children have a better chance of getting ahead in school. Through the cooperation between school, care, parents and environment, children have a better chance of developing their talents (see The Hague Educational Agenda 2022-2026, RIS311077).
7) You can substantiate in your application that your organisation offers programmes for talent development in poverty problem areas (CBS has designated these postcode areas). These are programmes in the fields of culture, sports, technology and welfare (20 pnt).

Every child is different and every child requires its own specific approach. For this reason, the municipality wishes to implement appropriate childcare (see Hague Educational Agenda 2022-2026, RIS311077).
8) In your application, you can substantiate that your organisation has experience in operating inclusive childcare (i.e. care for children with specific support needs together with children without specific support needs, excluding medical childcare) and/or has cooperated in the past or is currently cooperating with primary schools for special education (20 pnt).

In cooperation with educational institutions and childcare organisations, the municipality works towards a continuous development line for children aged 0 to 13. One way to achieve this is by realising child centres where education and care are integrated. For this reason, we prefer a childcare organisation that is a member of the Vereniging Netwerk Kindcentra (VNK).
9) You can demonstrate in your application that you are a member of the VNK (10 pnt).
The municipality values a childcare organisation that shares the same vision and mission as the primary school. For this reason, preference is given to a childcare organisation that has a clear vision and mission in line with that of the primary school: 'Working together on tailor-made education - with head, heart and hands'.

The primary school's vision is described in the school plan as follows:

"A child is more than just cognitive skills (head). Other necessary skills (heart and hands) also increase the chances of success (e.g. perseverance). Learning with the head: developing thinking skills. Learning with the heart: social-emotional development, contact with the world, where is your heart, your passion? Learning with the hands: developing creativity, technical skills. Parents, pupils and team work together for the child's development. We have an eye for his talents. We teach pupils to learn (with head, heart and hands), which they take with them into the unknown world of tomorrow. As a team, we go along with that world; for example, dealing with social media, learning to learn (executive functions) and further digitalisation (chatGPT).
We provide a solid foundation and tools to face that world with confidence.''
One sentence the primary school singles out is: "We have an eye for his talents''. The primary school chooses talent and the school does so with the ideas of Luk Dewulf and Els Pronk (an intervention recognised by the Equal Opportunities Alliance). In this thinking, talent is not seen as a skill (you can play football or draw well), but as something that makes you happy, something you are doing where time seems to fly.

You get satisfaction from it. Talent = positive emotions = broadening capacities = resilience. Here, the school looks beyond children's behaviour and focuses on the authentic part of their personality. It is not just about the behaviour children show, but more importantly the underlying causes and motives of that behaviour.

10) Your organisation shares the above vision and mission of the Prins Willem Alexander Public Primary School (OBS) and is willing to cooperate with the primary school. In your application, you should clarify how your vision and mission align with those of the school and how you put them into practice (20 pnt).
