Education and teaching
Reykjavík City primary schools follow the national curriculum for primary schools, with reference to the Reykjavík City Education Policy. The main objective of the Policy is for all children to grow, develop and feel happy in a democratic society that is based on human rights and respect for the diversity of human life.
Through robust school and recreation activities, children and young people gain education and experience to realize their dreams and have a positive impact on their environment and society.
Mentor
Mentor is an information system for students, parents and school staff. Guardians and students receive a Mentor password. On the family page, guardians can view their children's schedules, homework, educational assessments, attendance and more.
Curricula and curriculum guides
Curriculum guides outline learning objectives. They detail methods to reach these goals, subject matter, and assessment criteria. More detailed information about student learning is available in lesson plans. These are accessible to students and parents on Mentor.

The school emphasizes student punctuality. All children aged 6 to 16 must attend school, and parents/guardians are responsible for their enrollment, attendance, and participation.
If attendance issues arise, parents/guardians and the school must respond. To ensure effective responses, Reykjavík's primary schools follow unified guidelines and rules.
