Dutch secondary education secondary education begins at the age of 12 and is divided into two categories, one is general secondary education and the other is vocational secondary education. General secondary education includes three parallel learning systems, and their learning time is different, namely MAVO, HAVO and VWO. MAVO is junior high school education, HAVO is senior high school education, and VWO is pre-university secondary education. Only after obtaining VWO diploma can the above three kinds of secondary education have the entrance qualification of comprehensive universities, while obtaining HAVO diploma has the entrance qualification of higher vocational education.

There are two main streams of higher education in the Netherlands, one is university education provided by comprehensive universities, and the other is higher vocational education provided by higher vocational education universities. The third field is international education, which is called IO in Dutch. International courses are provided by IO colleges, universities and higher vocational education universities. Comprehensive universities train students to engage in scientific and technological work independently in academic or professional environment. Higher vocational education universities focus on the application of arts and sciences to provide students with the knowledge and technology needed for special majors, while IO College is specially established to provide education for foreign students.

1. At present, there are 14 comprehensive universities. The Dutch comprehensive university education system is called "university" in the British and American education systems. In the system of comprehensive universities in the Netherlands, the duration of study courses is four to five years, and then a master's degree equivalent to the British and American systems is obtained. After obtaining this degree, you can apply for doctoral and postdoctoral research.

2. Higher Professional Education University (HBO for short) requires four years of study to get a degree in HBO. Only with this degree can you apply for a post-bachelor course.

3. Current Institute of International Education 15. Most colleges of international education offer extensive, long-term or short-term courses for international learners, and students all over the world can get master's degrees after studying for one or two years. Some IO colleges offer doctoral programs.

In addition to higher education in the Netherlands, comprehensive universities, higher professional universities and IO colleges in the Netherlands also provide international higher education, among which a master's degree is equivalent to a master's degree.

Is it better to immigrate to Holland to attend an international school or a local school? As a part of public education, the tuition fees of regular international schools in the Netherlands are not as expensive as expected, so it is not too extravagant for foreign families to send their children to international schools.

Generally speaking, tuition fees range from 2,000 euros to 20,000 yuan per year. Compared with local schools in the Netherlands, it is still much higher, because most basic education schools in the Netherlands are free.

In international schools in the Netherlands, in addition to international courses, there are also small integration courses for children. Foreign children studying here can learn some Dutch while receiving international education and integrate into Dutch society, which is really a good choice for children who have just arrived in the Netherlands.
