Netherlands
The VET training system in NetherlandsEducation is compulsory for pupils from 5 to 16. Until August 2008, those aged 16-17 on August 1 of any one year were required by law to attend education on at least one or two days a week. Since then, a ‘qualification duty’ exists for this age group, if they have not yet attained a general or vocational qualification at upper secondary level. This new arrangement was introduced because of the need to reduce the number of early school leavers. |
