School costs

In the Netherlands, education is in principle free for children aged up to sixteen. That means if a child is not yet sixteen at the beginning of the school year, no costs have to be paid. Primary schools are allowed to ask for a parental contribution, but payment is not mandatory. However, non payment can mean your child is not able to take part in some activities. School costs are payable from age sixteen onwards. The amount is fixed each year by the Ministry of Education. One of the places where you can find more information is
