What makes a school a good school? How do you evaluate the quality of a school? What are the achievements, the opportunities, the labour market perspective, the socialization and the well-being of students? And to what extent do schools differ in this respect? And how do students in the Netherlands compare to students in other countries on these different aspects of quality? And does the inspectorate look at the relevant characteristics of quality? How can supervision be improved with recent scientific insights? These questions are extremely relevant in a country where schools have a lot of autonomy to make choices, and there are different views on what quality is and educational inspection wants to innovate. To this end, we use international instruments, Dutch data and data from the Dutch inspectorate of education.
