Koninklijke Auris Zuid Tilburg

What Koninklijke Auris Zuid Tilburg does

Auris De Spreekhoorn is a Dutch special education primary school located at Dirk Hartogstraat 10 in Breda, serving students aged 3-13 with language development disorders (TOS) and hearing impairments. It is operated by Stichting Onderwijs Koninklijke Auris Groep, a non-profit educational foundation, under the Dutch cluster 3 special education designation. The school operates with approximately 30 employees, including a multidisciplinary team of speech therapists, audiologists, orthopedagogues, and special education teachers who follow three individualized learning routes (basis, verdiept, intensief).

The institution's core technology stack is specialized but modest in scope: audiological solo equipment amplifies teacher speech for hearing-impaired students, Nederlands met Gebaren (NmG) supports spoken Dutch with gestures in lower grades, and the Social Schools platform enables parent-teacher communication. Proprietary methodologies include the Ervaar TOS Belevingscircuit (experiential circuit helping parents understand language disorders) and the Kindbegrip assessment system for social-emotional monitoring. Curriculum delivery emphasizes small class sizes (12-18 students), integrated speech-language therapy (logopedie), and structured transition pathways toward VMBO BBL/KBL or mainstream education.

The business model is government-funded: revenue flows from Dutch cluster 3 special education funding allocated through Auris-issued educational arrangements (onderwijsarrangement), supplemented by minor voluntary parent contributions (€17.50 general fee, €70 school camp). Go-to-market is direct-to-family through the Auris enrollment pipeline rather than commercial sales; there is no pricing discretion, no SaaS model, and no out-of-pocket tuition. The school additionally provides ambulatory support services for students who remain in mainstream schools, and the parent foundation operates adjacent care services (Auris Zorg) including after-school care and family-based treatment. Quality outcomes (96% retention, 84% VMBO transition) and a satisfactory 2024 onderwijsinspectie assessment indicate operational stability rather than growth-mode operations.
