Two weeks ago I wrote a post about my observations of the unbalanced Dutch educational system and the choices it forces teenagers to make. At the time it was a personal reaction to having sat in a report card meeting that felt rather lopsided to say the least:
Today on the website of the Dutch national broadcast channel an article by Koen Koopman appeared that covers some extremely parallel lines of thought. It’s nice of course to feel that you are in tune with others! It is nicer still to know that such educational issues are at least being discussed in the national media, and who knows, maybe in the future may bring about some refinement in the situation.
