About Valeo
Valeo is an innovative private school in Eindhoven. We offer education to children with a sensory-processing sensitivity. At Valeo we focus on optimal development and an ultimate balance between body and mind.
At Valeo, they can be individuals and perfectly fine just the way they are.
On September 5 our first group, for children age 7+, with a sensitivity processing disorder has started. Max 6 children.
A group for children 4-6 years old has also started and there is room for new children.
Within the structured schedule, every child works at their own pace and level. The material and approach we use, can vary per day per child, depending on their needs.
We are also working on creating a high school in the future that perfectly matches our primary school.
QUOTES FROM PARENTS
"Great to finally have warm high quality education available in our neighbourhood".
"I look forward to the time that my child no longer cries when he goes to school and comes home completely exhausted".
"Wonderful that you have created a place where my child can actually work at its own pace instead of being held back by a group".
Our mission
Not all children can thrive in the chaos of traditional crowded classrooms and sometimes outdated methods.
Despite the teachers' efforts and due to a lack of resources most children cannot be given the attention or challenge they desperately need. Some may even feel invisible or misunderstood.
At Valeo we offer a place where children can develop many skills and excel at their talents.
They are seen, heard and appreciated.
It is our mission to make children feel stimulated, to expand and grow in their value.
Like the name "Valeo" says "worthy", every child is worth it, to thrive in a happy educational setting.
We work towards the child being able, to fully develop itself and we work on learning how to deal with external distractions and stimuli better.
For who?
Our school is suitable for highly sensitive children who:
-thrive in a stress free environment;
-have challenges in their development with an iq of 70 or higher
-have an average of very high intellect;
-need/want a personal approach;
-are independant or need extra guidance;
-want to feel heard, seen and aprreciated;

-value music and sports, tech & science;
-enjoy working at their own pace and level;

The groups
Together, the children discover new things, while speaking in English and Dutch.
In our student tracking system we can see how they grow as an individual.
Age 4-6
This group is for all children, with or without a diagnoses. At this age it can be uncertain in which direction they will grow to. Because the group is small and calm, that is possible.
The children get to learn about various subjects while playing.
Playfully they socialize and practice skills. The kindergartners are stimulated to be active and adventurous. They use all sorts of materials including an ipad. Playing outdoors is also a large part of healthy development.
Max 6 children.
Age 7-12
In this group for children, we continuously keep in mind to have a low-stimulus environment. Everything is adapted to what the children need. They get a lot of attention and personal guidance.
Help from specialists is available if needed.
The children work on Dutch, English, math, history, biology, and geography, using a laptop or other materials. They go out into nature to expand their horizons. Make music to enhance brainfunctions. Do all kinds of sports and work a lot on social skills and on how to handle stimuli.
Next to all above subjects, tech & science has a role in the weekly schedule. The kids actively experiment with and learn about the basics on physics, chemistry, hardware, software, other cool tech stuff.
Max 6 children.

Is my special needs child welcome?
Yes, if your child can function in a small group. In every individual case we need to discuss the special needs and decide if we can offer the proper care.
Our school is a perfect fit for children that thrive in a stress free environment with a personal approach. Stimming and fluttering for example, are no problem. We value every child as it is and do not judge.
How does customized education work at Valeo?
Because the groups are so small it is possible to let every child work on their own exercises, at their own pace and level. They can constantly get instruction and steering if necessary. The child sees their own progress and focuses on themselves. Because we work a lot online and due to the close observation by the teacher, we are able to measure progress all the time. Tests are not necessary.
We discuss what does work and what doesn't and adjust it. That way the child can always see him/herself grow as a person all the time, rather than competing with others in a huge classroom.
Is my child welcome when he/she does not speak Dutch?
Absolutely! In the lessons we speak Dutch and English all the time. Along the way they will learn Dutch and all the Dutch native speakers learn English. In no time the children will be able to have conversations and work, in both languages.
My child is not a special need child. Is he/she welcome?
Yes. If your child needs or desires personal attention for any reason, he/she is welcome.
How do other parents organize finances?
The tuition fee at Valeo is remarkably low in comparison with other private schools that offer personal education.
Nevertheless, it is not a given, that all parents are able to pay for the tuition, that easily.
This is what other parents do:
Have grandparents of or family members to contribute, apply for extra child support from the government for their child with autism, work an extra day or set up a private crowfunding activity.
We will keep you informed about our fundraising activities.
