Netherlands Bans Settlement Goods | Amsterdam News

Class Rank Shapes School Track Decisions | Amsterdam News

New research reveals a surprising twist in Dutch secondary school track recommendations: students with identical test scores can get different advice based on their class ranking. Top performers in weaker classes are more likely to be pushed toward elite tracks like vwo, while peers with the same score in stronger classes often don’t get the same boost. Teachers may be unconsciously using class rank as a benchmark, and students’ confidence and behavior also play a role—sometimes outweighing actual test results. The study doesn’t judge the system, but it warns educators to recognize how class dynamics and social cues subtly shape educational futures, especially for students from underrepresented backgrounds.

Netherlands Bans Goods from Israeli Settlements | Amsterdam News

This bold move follows parliamentary pressure and comes after Europe failed to agree on a unified ban. With the UN and global reports condemning settlement violations and settler violence, the Netherlands joins Belgium, Spain, and Ireland in taking a stand — even as officials brace for enforcement hurdles.
