Dayschool

Written by Susanne.

The Day School at Tvind

is where students (14+) from PTG, Casablanca and Apollo (care homes in Holstebro) go to school. The school has different study lines. All students follow individual study or work plans. 

The school is equipped with servers, networks and a PC for each student, and the students on the study line use an extensive database (DmM) with access to study tasks at 12 different levels. The study line prepares for 9th grade exams, 10th grade exams or A-levels. The practical line carries out professional construction tasks and improvements indoors and outdoors. The one-off line students have specially designed programmes, usually including work experience in nearby towns.

DNS students along with the teachers run the school. As a teacher at the Day School we expect you to:

  • Be curious. Interested in the students, and in how we can encourage them to explore themselves and the world.
  • Be brave. Dont be afraid of  who you are, share your opinions, abilities and experiences with students and teachers alike.
  • Be humble. Respect the students, regardless of how inappropriate their behaviour might be.They are here for a reason, and it is our task to find the key to their hearts and minds.
  • Respect the traditions and frames of the school. No solo's - only team player.
  • Learn to be encompassing. This means organizing after school activities: bird watching, skating, mending cars, shooting hoops, cycling, playing pool,games, cooking, going shopping, organizing special actions, watering the flowers, making breakfast, looking after pets and much more.
    This means social work: finding out who smokes hash and why, waking the lazy ones up in the morning, solving conflicts, celebrating birthdays, comforting the heart broken and generally being a grown up person they can rely on in all matters of life.
