Number of pupils in primary education per province (01-01-2013-02-01-2019)
Description
The Act on Primary Education (WPO) provides that children from 4 to 12 years of age can attend primary education, two of which are different types:
• Regular primary education: Children who attend primary education without much extra help. In addition, the Law on the Centres of Expertise (WEC) also offers the possibility to place children with disabilities at a primary school. This is accompanied by student-related funding to enable special facilities in education (the so-called backpack).
• Special primary education: Children, who need more assistance in education and learning than primary education can provide, are dependent on special primary education. This type of education typically has smaller classes than primary education and has more separate experts to accompany pupils with learning and education problems.
This file contains only pupils who attend (special) primary education in a calendar year, and not pupils who only attend special education in a calendar year. Special education is for children who cannot attend (special) primary education due to a disability.
Although almost all pupils have only 1 enrolment, it may happen that a student had more than one in a calendar year.
