Students denounce lack investment

utrecht - Students come in arms against impending cuts in higher education. The student organizations ISO and LSVb feel cheated and have Monday on behalf ' very studying Netherlands' sent an urgent letter to the formative parties VVD, CDA, D66 and GroenLinks. Tuesday they take action at the Hofvijver in The Hague.

The contribution of the State for education is in their balance just wonder, as more and more students recover. To belong to the top of the knowledge economy, requires additional investment, but remain of the students. That puts the quality of education under pressure. The colleges put last week on the formation table their concerns about this.

Students point out that the abolition of the basic grant money was to produce what would be spent on education. But that promise is ' about to be broken '', as they make up the multi-annual budgets of the Ministries of Education and Economic Affairs.
