OECD Review of Digital Education Policy in the Netherlands

The OECD Review of Digital Education Policy in the Netherlands offers an independent analysis of strengths and challenges related to digital education in Dutch schools. It was carried out as part of the OECD project Resourcing School Education: Policies for the Digital Transformation of Education and Future-Readiness of Teachers. The report describes and assesses the system from an international perspective and proposes policy options to guide future reforms. The analysis covers primary and secondary education, focussing on digital education policies concerning the following topics: i) governance and system-level strategy, ii) funding and procurement; iii) the EdTech and education materials markets; iv) capacity building and the future roles of teachers, and v) the curriculum framework, assessments and school evaluations. This report aims to inform education authorities and stakeholders in the Netherlands as well as other countries looking to develop a system-level policy environment that enables schools to achieve excellence and equity in the digital age.
