The Existence of Parental Choice in the Netherlands.
Dronkers, Jaap
Educational Policy, v9 n3 p227-43 Sep 1995
Private/public school choice has existed in the Netherlands since 1900. The national government subjects public, Protestant, and Catholic school sectors to equal examination, salary, and capital investment standards. Factors influencing the existence of religious schools in an increasingly irreligious society include community church values; differences in educational administration, student intake, and finance; and educational conservatism.
