TOF Onderwijs

What TOF Onderwijs does

TOF Onderwijs is a Dutch stichting (foundation) for primary education (primair onderwijs) that operates nine elementary schools across the municipality of Tubbergen in the province of Overijssel, Netherlands. Each of the nine schools maintains its own identity and character — rooted in Catholic, Protestant Christian, or neutral denominational foundations — while operating under a unified foundation governance structure consisting of a College van Bestuur (Executive Board) and a Raad van Toezicht (Supervisory Board). The foundation serves children from age four and their families across all villages in the Tubbergen catchment area, with parents enrolling via intake interviews at the school of their choice. Beyond direct instruction, TOF Onderwijs coordinates with local childcare providers for before- and after-school care and operates an academy platform for staff professional development.

The organization is funded primarily through Dutch government channels under the public primary education funding regime; specific tuition or fees are not publicly disclosed. Operational scale includes more than 150 staff (per foundation disclosure) across the school network, with leadership provided by Bestuurder B. Roumen and a five-member Supervisory Board chaired by P. Jonkheijm. TOF Onderwijs shares a joint administrative bureau (gemeenschappelijk stafbureau) with Stichting Konot, pooling advisors in education & quality, HR, finance & housing, and ICT — a back-office consolidation model common among mid-sized Dutch education foundations. The foundation is also affiliated with the Mobiliteitscentrum OBT for substitute teacher arrangements.

The technology footprint is modest: the foundation uses Google Drive as its intranet, operates an ICT helpdesk request form, and hosts its professional development academy on Plusport (via the Konot-TOF Academie). There is no proprietary technology platform, no AI/ML capability, no mobile application, and no disclosed API. Revenue is not publicly disclosed on the website, though annual report (Jaarverslag 2024) and budget (Begroting 2026-2029) documents are referenced. Customer acquisition is community-led, relying on local open days, information evenings, walk-in mornings, and house-to-house publications rather than any structured digital marketing channel.
