That it appears from Monday’s figures.
According to the ministry of Education in the academic year 2016/2017, there was an increase of the number of enrolments of 5 percent.
Minister Jet Bussemaker, responsible for the implementation of a loan system for students, is also satisfied. “I think the good news is that this recovery is now occurring; earlier and stronger than expected,” she states.
According to her, the level of the number of registrations is around the level of 2012, the year that the abolition of the basic grant announced.
As a result, the number of registrations in 2013, because students feudalism for wanted. In 2015, when feudalism was introduced, and was therefore a strong decrease of the number of registrations.
Colleges
Despite the increase, Thom de Graaf, chairman of the dome of colleges Association of Colleges, is not satisfied.
“growth remains, unfortunately, still behind the steep contraction of last year,” said The Count. “In particular, the disappointing direct flow as well as the continuing fall of the VWO inflow seem to be the cause of it.”
Also, the CDA is not at all happy with the figures. “Minister Bussemaker try beautiful decor to make with the influx of foreign students at the universities. But what they can’t conceal is that since the introduction of feudalism 13000-15000 students and mbo’ers have apart from a study in higher professional education,” said CDA Mp Michel Rog.
“That’s a lot more than the figures of a decline of 2,700 students per year, where the minister with shielded with the introduction of feudalism. Bussemaker has the word ‘elevation’ single-handedly from the social-democratic dictionary is deleted and masks its failed policies by fumbling with the figures.”
the National union of students (LSVb) shares the joy of the minister. “The figures for the universities are heavily flattered by the growth in the number of international students. Also, we don’t know how you are doing with the vulnerable groups, such as students with disabilities, who are the hardest hit by the loan system,” said voortzitter Jarmo Berkhout.
Lower
The universities are actually very positive. According to the association of universities VSNU and the ministry of Education, Culture and Science, the total inflow of advance a much lower estimated growth of 0.1 percent.
“The universities are proud of so many of the students may lead,” says VSNU chairman Karl Ditttrich. “But to give them all a good education, to provide the funding, this increase will follow.”
the parties that the loan system supported, are satisfied. Mohammed Mohandis: “It’s great to see that students are not mad to have let all the fictions. We should now all convert to this rising trend to continue.”
According to VVD Mp Pieter Duisenberg was already the expectation that the influx would attract and now is the time to invest in quality.
“We need to focus now on the additional investments that we can do in more teachers, less full lecture halls and the highest quality education,” says the VVD.
Also, D66, that feudalism rested, reacts pleased. “We can now finally of the image that you would not be able to study with feudalism. Now that is disempowered,” says D66 Mp Paul van Meenen. “People had to sit on set. And there was fear, fanned by the opposition.”
Van Meenen is that Bussemaker now need to focus on where feudalism was meant to serve, namely, to be able to invest in smaller classes and better guidance.
International
