Primary school meals
School meals are free for the 2024-2025 school year. However, the school still needs to track information about allergies and intolerances and limit food waste. Students must register for the school lunch program as before.
Students registered last year will be automatically enrolled. Others need to register. Change the registration at matur.vala.is.
Parent cooperation
We are all in this together, and as the proverb goes it takes a village to raise a child.
Reykjavík City schools make targeted efforts to consult with and increase parent involvement in school activities.
All schools in Reykjavík City have an active parent association.
School council
Primary schools must have an active school council that serves as a forum for consultation between the principal and the school community on the school operation. The main role of the school council is to be a forum for all representatives of the school community to consult on school matters.
Evaluation of school activities
The goal of evaluating and monitoring the quality of work is to provide information about school activities, their results and development.
Dalskóli school district
Reykjavík has many school districts, and the child's registered address determines their district school.
Your child gets priority in their district school. Nevertheless, all parents have the choice to apply to any school in the city for their children according to the rules on school districts, applications, and admission.
Here is information on which streets belong to Dalskóli's school district.
