Jonge kinderen zitten in de stress over toetsen. Waar komt die druk vandaan?
The final test is coming again for group 8. That means pale faces, short fuses and stomach aches, teachers say. But it's not just the final test that causes stress. Teachers also see stressed children around the tests in groups 5, 6 and 7. These tests are included in the school advice for secondary education. To influence this, children train outside of school. Parents buy tests via the internet or send their offspring to test training. Why do we attach so much importance to those tests? Doesn't our testing culture create unequal opportunities? And can it be done differently?
