The capacity test is part of the NP Education. The result of the test shows what a student can do and where extra support and guidance might be needed. This way a student can move to the best suitable education level. The test can give teachers extra information about a student’s transition possibilities. It can also help to explore the student’s ambition, talents, and development.<\/p>\n
The test is a tool and schools are not required to use it. The test is not necessary to decide if a student changes education level, slows down, or speeds up in education.<\/p>\n
Parents must be involved, that is important. Schools must clearly explain to them the purpose of the capacity test and how they handle the results. Based on the test result, a conversation should follow with the parents and student about the best suitable level. Parents can refuse to let their child take the capacity test.<\/p>\n
Some students have delays or setbacks due to the effects of corona. Still, these students must have the same chances to find the best place. This can be done by using a capacity test, but a school can also choose to be more flexible with transition norms. This gives students more time and space to develop and the chance to do their best throughout their school career. You can read more about this in the guide \u2018Opportunity for smooth transition\u2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n The School participation council must also be informed about the capacity tests and their administration. Schools can apply for a subsidy until October 4 for this. Furthermore, the School participation council has approval authority over the promotion policy. Sterk Medezeggenschap has developed a special dialogue card<\/a> for this.<\/p>\n Do you have questions? For more information you can check the frequently asked questions<\/a> from the ministry.
