School boards are obliged to publish annual reports
Educational institutions in all educational sectors are legally obliged to publish their annual accounts. Minister Bussemaker and State Secretary Dekker of Education have decided to do so, after it has again become apparent that too few school boards put their annual accounts online themselves.
Yesterday the Education Magazine reported that many school boards in primary and secondary education still put no or incomplete annual reports on their website. They ignore their own agreements in their Good Governance codes.
Codes
So far, the ministers have left it to school boards to call each other to account via their codes. Earlier this year, Bussemaker warned that she would still oblige institutions if self-regulation does not work.
'An inventory shows that by no means all primary and secondary schools publish their annual report. There is also little hope that a new incentive will lead to a 100% score ', reports OCW this morning.
In MBO, HBO and WO, administrators are doing better, but there too there are institutions that only provide their annual accounts on request.
