The school will let you know that a statement. CVO is shocked about the results at the Vreewijk Lyceum. Henk Post, chairman of the board of CVO, calls it 'unacceptable' and says that he is placing the school under stricter supervision by the umbrella organization. CVO regrets the number of failed students.
In absolute terms, 12 secondary school students and 33 HAVO students failed. The school's pass rates are below the national average. In 2017, for example, more than 90 percent of VWO students passed and the HAVO rate was 87 percent.
Courses
According to the school, it is mainly the subjects chemistry, biology, art and French that went wrong. In the Algemeen Dagblad Post informed that it appears the preparation was not good.
CVO spokesman Anja de Zeeuw says that the dome did not see it coming. However, the students who heard after the first period that they had a resit, were offered support. But in the second epoch it turned out that it was to no avail.
Research
“The main question of the research is: why are the results so disappointing,” says De Zeeuw. “What are the causes of this. For example, the number of those who stayed there was not such that this was very different. ” The school exams also gave no reason to think that many students would fail.
The school has the causes of the disappointing final exam results investigated by an external party. The Education Inspectorate is aware of the situation.
