Pupils in (special) primary education; origin, residential region

This table contains figures on the number of pupils in (special) primary education. The data can be broken down by gender, type of education, origin and region of residence. CBS is moving towards a new classification of the population by origin. From now on, it is more decisive where a person was born, besides where one’s parents were born. The word migration background is no longer used. The main classification of Western/Non-Westerns is replaced by a classification based on continents and common immigration countries. This classification is gradually introduced in tables and publications with population by origin. Data available from: 2011/'12. Status of the figures: The figures for the school years from 2011/‘12 to 2020/’21 are final and those for the school years 2021/‘22 and 2022/’23 are provisional. Changes as of 24 February 2023: None, this is a new table. When are new figures coming? The final figures for the school year 2021/'22 will be available in the second quarter of 2023.
