How to enrol

​

Joining Ramidoro is not simply a matter of filling in a form: it is the beginning of a shared journey between the family, the teachers and the community. That is why, before enrolment proper, we take the time to get to know one another - we want the decision to be an informed and easy one on both sides. Here are the steps.

 

1. First contact

The best way to begin is to write to us from the Contact page and arrange a meeting. That is where the journey starts.

 

2. The introductory meeting with the parents

The first step is a meeting between the parents and the teachers who take care of first contacts. We tell each other our stories: from our side we set out the educational project, the principles behind it, daily life at the school and the practical arrangements; from yours, you tell us about your child, your own story and what you are looking for. It is the moment to ask every question, and to see whether there is the underlying accord on which a good shared path is built.

 

3. Meeting the child

If the conversation with the family is going in the right direction, we arrange a meeting with the child together with the teacher of the class they might join. It is not an examination or a test: it is a relaxed occasion for getting to know one another. For us it serves as an educational assessment - understanding how best to accompany the child, and whether joining that particular class is possible and positive at this moment, taking into account the balance of the group as well. We then share the outcome with the family clearly and frankly.

 

4. Enrolment: the administrative part

When this process of getting to know one another comes to a positive conclusion, we move on to the administrative part: parents deal with the office to complete the paperwork and join the association. The office guides you through every step and provides all the necessary documents.

​

One last important point: families who choose parent-led education also have obligations towards their reference school, beginning with the advance notification. These are explained on the page How parent-led education works - and we accompany you through them, one stage at a time.

To get started, write to us from the Contact page: we would be glad to meet you.
