ouderlijkeeducatieve

Ouderlijkeeducatieve is a Dutch compound term that blends ouderlijke, meaning parental or relating to parents, with educatieve, meaning educational. The expression is not a standard or widely used term in official dictionaries, and it does not have a single, formal definition. In practice, it may appear in contexts where materials, programs, or policies are described as educational content intended for parents rather than for children.

The term is typically encountered in research, policy documents, or program descriptions that focus on increasing parents’ knowledge, skills, and competencies related to child development, schooling, parenting practices, or family well-being. Because it is not a commonly established label, it is often replaced by more common phrases such as oudereducatie (parent education), opvoedingsonderwijs (parenting education), or educational materials for ouders. When used, ouderlijkeeducatieve phrasing tends to emphasize the parental side of education rather than the child-facing aspect.

Related concepts include ouderbetrokkenheid (parental involvement), familieonderwijs (family education), and literency- or skill-building initiatives aimed at families. The term can appear in academic articles, program curricula, or administrative plans, but its usage may be perceived as stylistically unusual or informal. For clarity and broad comprehension, it is generally preferable to use established terms like oudereducatie or materiaal voor ouders.
