< 3 year olds 0 NA NA 0 0 Statistics Netherlands (CBS) Question 2: Until 2014, pupils with special educational needs were receiving 'backpack financing', which they could use for mainstream education or special education. These pupils were registered. Since 2014, 'backpack financing' no longer exists, so there is no registration of pupils with special educational needs in mainstream education. Question 3: There is no data collection of special classes in regular schools. Special classes are possible and allowed, but there is no central registration. Question 5: In the Netherlands, schools connected to treatment centres in the health, social or justice sectors are part of the formal education system.
