Important motions mbo debate adopted.
Tuesday afternoon was the voting on the motions submitted during the mbo debate in the House of Representatives last week. What stood out? Mainly that two important motions on internship discrimination and parent involvement received a majority.
Internship discrimination
During the debate, Representatives Van der Plas (BBB) and El Yassini (VVD) asked for attention to internship discrimination, specifically discrimination due to a disability. The motion they submitted on this was adopted today. This means an investigation will be started into internship discrimination related to a disability. The results are expected in 2023.
Parent involvement
The motion submitted by Representatives Hagen (D66) and Bisschop (SGP) was also adopted. It asks Minister Dijkgraaf (higher education, culture and science) to talk with Ouders & Onderwijs about how parents can be more involved in their children’s education in mbo.
We are really looking forward to this because if we support something, it is certainly for the mbo parent. To underline this, Ouders & Onderwijs sent a letter to the House of Representatives with recommendations before the debate.
