    Standardized testing is used here too. It gives an indication, nothing more. The opinion of the teacher and school are more important, because they know the personal circumstances of the child.
    When I was a child I played outside the whole day. With other children, without parents anywhere. For hours and hours. My mother just said: Mind you get home when it's getting dark! That was it.
    School and sports are completely seperated here. It's no business of the schools.

    The information from Jovie's Home is good and reliable, she verifies that what she is saying is correct.
    Kinderbijslag (Child benefit) is not tax reduction, but simply an amount every (parent of a) child gets to pay a little bit of the extra money it takes to raise kids.
    From the date of birth, and every quarter year after. Not depending on the parents income, nationality, or whatever.

    Jovie's home is a wonderful channel! Just like Casey Kilmore and Dutch Americano. But Jovie is the best!
    Like your reactions by the way.
    And our country is very clean and has many good things. We pay high taxes (Americans would probably have a heart attack if they should have to pay the same amount) but we definitly see the results! The taxes are benefiting the people, which isn't always the case in other countries.

    one kid learns better or faster than others. I think testing should be bazed on the level of the kid. If kid is a bit behind on the others, the results of a standard test is not fair. Some kids just start a bit slower but with the right help they can move forward a lot.

    Yes, there are clubs that are expensive and exclusive and only affordable for richer people. Some golf clubs fall in that catagory.
    But generally in Dutch society it is not considered "cool" to be part of those circles. It is more seen as "snobbish". It is unthinkable that a serious club or school would not consider you because you are not in one of those poche clubs.

    Jovie talks about our social system from an American ‘family oriented’ viewpoint. Our social system (including healthcare) wasn’t set up for the purpose of families or children, it was set up to be a safety net for all citizens. So no one would ‘fall of the wagon’.

    Interesting example you gave about baseball. I think in the Netherlands it's a little bit less of an issue because you don't need to play college sports to go into professional sports. When your talented enough you'll get scouted at a young age at your local club by the professional teams. They put you in one of their youth teams and you develop over there and maybe make it to the professional level when your older.
    It's also not necessary to get into to college. I don't think we have sports scholarships for colleges and in general a college education is relatively affordable, and when your parents have lower income you get a special monthly stipend to make it even more affordable.

      Hi Dasy, excellent points! Sports in school "American style" vs The European "Club sports" system are a huge difference in the education system between Europe and the USA. As far as I know the American system isn't only a way for students to finance their education by getting a scholarship, having successful sports programs/teams are also a way for American Universities/Colleges to finance themselves... Just another example of American Capitalism/commercialism vs European "socialism" I guess...

    I lived in The Netherlands for 1 year and will say that have it pretty good , but we in Scandinavian have it even better , especially when it comes to kids and everything around them so I’m still so thankful for having kids here ( I also live in us New York with 2 kids for a shorter time and so choked by they why they treat parents or everyone for that matter and this was 17 years ago( and nothing has changes ) 😬

    as a kid me and my sibling couldn't join a sport club or get music lessons because my father earned to much for getting help with paying for it from the municipality, but to less to pay for 4 kids. I always wanted it but my parents really couldn't afford it for 4 kids, you can't pay for one kid and not for the other, it is all of no-one.
    those who earn just a bit more than the low income often has less to spent than the low income because they get less subsidized stuff.
    for your information in the netherlands we don't have extra activities at school, so no sport teams or art, or whatever. we have some of them as subjects but not as an extra activity after school hours. all sports or music lessons has to be done in your own time with your own money.

    Quite clean and quite safe. For an American it must be very clean and safe.
    The exams at the end of high school or similar are standardized but their own teacher will control their exams and they will be controlled by a teacher of another school. If it wasn’t standardized, scores couldn’t be compared by a future employer or university.
    Kids of about six can play outside unattended. Very good for their independence. They themselves have to find out about how to live and play with other children.
    Yes, there are expensive sports here but showing of how rich and wealthy you are is a no go area in the Netherlands. You will be ridiculed. Behave normal is the rule.
    The moment you have a child, you get the child care money.
    Does your child have free healthcare as you are without a job? Here, everyone has obligatory healthcare for about €140 per month.
    Kids have about twelve weeks Holliday.

    Having chocolate sprinkles on bread is really being spoiled as a child.

    Hi Mr Localia, at some points you need something to compare children, for example when you need some guidance on what high school system to select. So when they're 12 year old all kids get a large standardised test (CITO). Typically the CITO test is the first standardised test that Dutch children get presented with. Before that, at pre-school there is not much formal testing at all, because it is believed that the pressure (and occasional failing) will reduce the kid's natural enthousiasm to learn.
    At high school standardised tests are the norm. High school finishes with a National standardised test which weighs heavy for progressing to University or Polytechnics.

    • @dutchman7623
      @dutchman7623 Před 2 lety +2

      And there are guidelines for primary school, about what level should be achieved in which school year. But it's not the pupils that are tested, but the school.

    • @tafelsstan5598
      @tafelsstan5598 Před 2 lety

      From age 4 and up children do get tested (I believe 3 times a year) with the standarised test. Cito is most often used. Parents get to see at what level their kid has performed.
      At the end at the 8th group (age 11-12) there is this end test to see what level of education will be best for the next years. If a child does better on that test than it has more freedom to chose, if the child performs worse than the teacher can use the data of the previous years to advise which school suits best.
      For the children the early test are not pressurized it is just another thing to do.. For most one the last one does.

    I assume that you mean a 1 test fits all system. In that case, I am against it. You can't compare people by using 1 test. Green fingers, does not mean philosopher, so how do you score a person ?? If the lower score is not defined by the person being dumb, how will it be defined not to be a negative ?? Or do we start giving points on a "participation reward" idea ??

    actually child support in the Netherlands is one of the lowest in Europe.
    Same with maternity leave, dads only have a few days and mom 16 weeks, but most European countries go way beyond that. But the USA is among the worse third world countries when it comes to maternity leave.
