A school for the future

Within the framework of "Innovatief Aanbesteden", the kick-off meeting on the project "A school for the future" is organized the 31th of May.

The policy Education and Training wants to develop an innovative concept for a school for the future. The aim is to create a performing, durable, user-friendly and flexible learning environment for competency-based education.

A competency-based learning environment makes high demands on all aspects of the school infrastructure: the division of the school, the equipment of the rooms and the ICT-supplies.

• architects, designers, study bureaus
