Parents are allowed to catch up with and bring children back to school

This relaxation also means that parents can go to open days again. Pupils are also given the opportunity to work together and take lessons with children from other classes. Also breaks no longer need to be staggered.

For higher education and secondary vocational education, the maximum group size of 75 people will be abolished. It reports that Ministry of Education.


Basic rules continue to apply

In principle, the relaxations will take effect on February 18 and 25. However, schools and educational institutions can choose not to introduce them until the following Mondays, so that the new school week starts with the new rules.

The basic rules also continue to apply in education, such as washing hands, coughing and sneezing in the elbow, not shaking hands and testing in case of complaints. The urgent advice to do a preventive self-test twice a week from group 6 of primary school will also remain for a while.


The General Education Association (AOb) points out that, despite the relaxation, education can still not be completely ‘back to normal’, due to the high number of infections among teachers. Chairman Tamar van Gelder: “Lessons will still be canceled due to the dropout of colleagues.”

In addition, the union continues to be concerned about ventilation in schools. This is not well organized at many educational institutions, Van Gelder has emphasized for some time. “And that while various experts claim that corona will no longer pass. Ventilation is then crucial, this really has to be sorted out everywhere.”
