For teachers
You teach. Klario handles the rest.
You became a teacher to teach, not to send invoices and puzzle over timetables. Does your school work with Klario? Then you run your own practice inside that school. Independent, with less admin and a better overview.
- Your own practice, under the school's brand.
- Invoicing and reminders run through the system.
- You see your timetable, your students and your own numbers.
False self-employment
As a teacher, you pay for false self-employment too
The Dutch tax authority starts with the school. But the bill reaches you as well. If in practice you work like an employee, you face back-tax assessments and possible fines too.
Self-employed deductions, the SME profit exemption and reclaimed VAT can be clawed back for up to five years. On top of that, the school can often pass its payroll tax assessment on to you. Since 2026 fines apply in cases of intent or gross negligence, and from 2027 without it too. That can add up to thousands or even tens of thousands of euros.
A model agreement, several clients or a Chamber of Commerce registration do not fix that. What counts is how you work in practice.
With Klario you work as a franchisee under Dutch franchise law. You run your own business under the school's brand. The model is designed to prevent false self-employment, for the school and for you.

Questions teachers often ask
Do I stay self-employed?
Yes. As a franchisee you run your own practice and carry your own business risk. That is exactly the point of the model.
What changes about my lessons?
Nothing about the teaching itself. What changes is everything around it: timetable, invoicing and messages run through one system.
Do I still send my own invoices?
No. Invoicing and reminders run through Klario. Your overview shows what has been invoiced and paid.
What exactly do I sign?
A franchise agreement with the school. The exact terms differ per school. The owner or Klario goes through it with you before you sign.

Your school doesn't work with Klario yet?
Then your school carries this risk, and so do you. Let the owner know and pass this site on. Got a question yourself? Just ask.
