Registration. Temporary Stop on Admissions

Due to the high influx of newcomers, there is a temporary stop on admissions of students at ISK Groningen starting from March 17, 2025. Unfortunately, we cannot accept new students at this time. For more information, please refer to the letter below.

Tijdelijke stop instroom ISK 17 maart 2025

Students can still be registered throughout the school year. Once the temporary stop is lifted, we will contact you. Registrations are done by sending an email to the support coordinator Ms. Margo van Wetten (m.vanwetten@o2g2.nl). Please include the name, date of birth, and contact details of the parents/guardians in the email, and whether the student has previously attended school in the Netherlands.

When the temporary stop is lifted, you will receive a confirmation of the registration and an invitation for an intake interview at the school. One of the parents/guardians must be present at this interview. During the intake interview, the registration form will be completed. It is important to bring proof of nationality and the date of arrival in the Netherlands.

In cases of waiting lists, students from our region will be given priority. We will then refer to the nearest ISK.

After students are admitted, they can be placed in different classes. Students who already have some knowledge of Dutch will be placed directly in an appropriate exit profile and academic year. At ISK, students take tests in the areas of language, mathematics, and learning speed. We also use information from the previous school to place a student in the right class.

Students who do not yet speak Dutch will join an intake group (six weeks). During this period, we gather information about the students' background (extended intake). This allows us to determine which exit profile a student belongs to.

We hope that this temporary stop will be as short as possible and thank you for your understanding.
