Imagine: a school full of enthusiastic pupils and teachers, who know exactly which classroom they need to be in and who they are being taught by each day. This may seem obvious, but behind the scenes it is pure craftsmanship. As a timetable planner, you are the linchpin of our school. You puzzle, coordinate, and ensure that the daily logistics run smoothly. An indispensable role in which your accuracy and people-oriented approach have a direct impact on the atmosphere in the school!
What will you do?
Together with our basic scheduler, you form the scheduling team. You ensure that the school organisation is organisationally and logistically rock-solid. Your tasks within the team include:
- Mastering the daily dynamics A school is always in motion. You implement daily timetable changes (due to illness, leave or excursions, for example) quickly and conveniently.
- Looking ahead and planning: As timetable maker, you are responsible for the timely delivery of the exam timetable for our school-wide exam weeks (4 times per year) and the activities timetable during activity weeks (2 times per year).
- Connecting and tuning You are in constant dialogue with teachers, team leaders, and management about the daily schedule. You listen to the various interests and know how to strike the right communicative balance.
- Laying the groundwork: Discuss with the basic scheduler about optimising the basic roster. As a team, you will ensure the puzzle fits and the formation is deployed efficiently.
Oscar Romero is a school offering MAVO, HAVO, and VWO education in Hoorn. We work as a team and look out for one another. Our motto is therefore: “Learning with courage!”.

About Tabor College Oscar Romero
Our motto is 'Learn in good spirit!". At Oscar Romero, you feel the unique Oscar atmosphere. At our school, you immediately feel at home in your own team. The building is modern but cosy. With us, students get the chance to grow. That starts by choosing the mavo, mavo/havo, havo, havo/vwo or vwo bridge class. There they lay the foundations for the rest of their schooling. Our bridging period lasts two years.
Since school year 2025-2026, we have been an aspiring Dalton school. This means that with us, pupils not only learn from books, but also develop important skills for later. All pupils have a Dalton planner and receive 8 Dalton hours per week, in which they are in charge of their own agenda. Do they need some extra help with a particular subject or will they work on their homework in the quiet room? This is how they learn to organise their time, make choices and work together with their classmates on great projects.
Besides the regular lessons, pupils can choose the Sports, Art or Technology line. They then get an extra two hours a week of lessons to study a subject they really like, together with peers with the same interests. In these extra lessons, they do all kinds of fun things. The Sports line goes to the Weissensee for a week, the Art line to Oerol and the Technology line builds on technical projects to eventually compete in competitions.
It is important to us that our pupils feel good at school. That is why there is always extra guidance if they need it, such as in our PlusPunt. But pupils should also feel good physically. As a Healthy School, we are happy to do our bit to ensure this.
