Unauthorized persons can teach at the elementary school in case of emergency Now

Primary schools facing a shortage of teachers may, for certain subjects, place in the classroom pupils who do not have a teaching diploma but possess specialized knowledge. This concerns courses in music, drama, manual work, art and world orientation.

The Education Inspectorate will not intervene if schools bring unauthorized persons with such knowledge before the class. However, schools must have tried everything to find a solution to the problem, according to the Ministry of Education.

The ministry points out that this is not a structural solution for the teacher shortage. "It can only be used temporarily and in case of emergency," the ministry said. This could be the case, for example, during a flu wave.

"If the Inspectorate receives signals indicating that quality or safety is seriously at stake, an investigation will be opened," the ministry said. "Above all, the safety of students and teachers and the quality of teaching must be guaranteed."
