That is many more than yesterday. Then only one in eight schools was closed. Especially secondary schools are mostly closed or switched to online education. This appears from a quick survey among parents done today by the Landelijk Ouderpanel of Ouders & Onderwijs.","inhoud":"<h3>Secondary schools mostly close doors<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The survey shows that 43.9% of the secondary schools are completely closed today and 23.3% of the primary schools. Among secondary schools, many work with an adjusted schedule (18.3%), online lessons, or other solutions (23.3%). Only 14.4% of secondary schools remained open, while 69.3% of primary schools stayed open. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Regional differences<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">There are also regional differences in school closures. In North Brabant, for example, 48% of schools are closed, while in North Holland (16%) and Gelderland (18%) a much smaller part of schools is closed. In the provinces of Utrecht (42%) and South Holland (40%), many schools are closed. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Parents generally positive<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Parents are generally positive about the decision to close schools or switch to an adjusted schedule or online lessons. Many parents say it was dangerous on the road this morning and they are happy their child could stay home. Parents also hope that schools can give clear information in time about the follow-up measures for the rest of the week. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>About Ouders &amp; Onderwijs<\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Ouders &amp; Onderwijs is an organization for all parents with school-age children.
