When for example a pupil has entered secondary education at a level they cannot cope with, or when they lack the interest to spend effort on their education resulting in poor grades, they can be sent from VWO to HAVO, from HAVO to VMBO, and from any level of VMBO to a lower level of VMBO.
例如，當學生在他們不能應對的水平上進入中學教育時，或者當他們缺乏花費在他們的教育上的興趣導致差的成績時，他們可以從VWO被發送到HAVO，從HAVO被發送到VMBO，任何水平的VMBO到較低水平的VMBO。
