Stichting Veldvest

What Stichting Veldvest does

Stichting Veldvest is a Dutch educational foundation (stichting) headquartered at Pastoor Jansenplein 21, 5504 BS Veldhoven, Netherlands, that operates as the competent authority for a network of 14 primary schools, one school for specialized primary education (SBO De Verrekijker), and one school for specialized secondary education (PWA-VSO). The foundation provides publicly funded primary education for children aged approximately 4-12 in the municipality of Veldhoven and surrounding villages (Vessem, Steensel, Knegsel, Wintelre), with the stated objective of enabling a seamless transition to secondary education matched to each student's abilities and motivation. Operations are supported by standard educational technology infrastructure including Office 365, AFAS InSite employee portal, an osTicket-based ICT helpdesk, digital learning platforms (OSMO, Scratch Jr, BlueBot, BeeBot, Codekraker, Bloxels, Microbit, LegoWeDo 2.0), and Microsoft Teams-based online instruction during pandemic-era lockdowns.

The foundation is registered as an ANBI (Algemeen Nut Beogende Instelling) and holds a single-member College van Bestuur currently led on an interim basis by Manja Voogd, with a Raad van Toezicht providing governance oversight. Revenue is derived entirely from Dutch government primary education funding under statutory per-pupil mechanisms; no tuition is charged. The foundation engages in strategic partnerships with municipal authorities (Gemeente Veldhoven), childcare providers (Nummereen Kinderopvang), secondary and vocational schools (Sondervick College), and teacher-training institutions (Fontys Hogescholen, Hogeschool De Kempel), plus program partnerships such as ANWB Streetwise. The organization is GDPR/AVG compliant with a designated Data Protection Officer and a formal complaints/Confidential Counselor function.

Financial figures are not publicly disclosed on the website, although annual reports (Jaarverslagen) and a Meerjarig Strategisch Beleidsplan are referenced. According to the Dutch Education Inspectorate's 2019 four-yearly verification study, the foundation's educational vision is firmly embedded across the organization and learning outcomes are consistently above national average. The company has no commercial technology product, no AI/ML capabilities, no funding rounds, no subsidiaries, and no parent organization; it operates as an independent non-profit foundation under Dutch education sector regulation.
