About Dalton school

Dalton education revolves around three core values: freedom, responsibility, and collaboration. Pupils plan their own work through daily and weekly tasks, consult with classmates, and learn how to make choices. The teacher acts as a coach.

Strengths

  • Teaches planning and independent work
  • Strong on collaboration and communication
  • Structured freedom: not too open, not too rigid
  • Works well for children who respond to responsibility
  • Widely available in the Netherlands

Keep in mind

  • Requires self-organization, which does not come naturally to every child
  • Quality varies by school and teacher
