DATA NOT RELATED TO ANY LEVEL

Definitions Pupils The number of pupils in this pocket book refers to the number of pupils and students enrolled on February 1, 2008. For non-university tertiary education and university education regular (first) enrolments in professional and academic bachelor courses, master courses and basic and initial teacher training courses are registered. In social advancement education, part-time education in the arts and supervised individual study (B.I.S.), enrolment rates are recorded. These rates may be higher than the number of physical persons as a pupil may be enrolled in several courses. In social advancement education, enrolments are counted for training programmes which were started in the period of reference (from 1 February 2006 up to and including 31 January 2007). The data for the reference period that starts 1/2/2007 were not available at time of publication. In order to avoid double counts, the pupils enrolled in special education due to long-term illness (pupils in type 5 special education) are not included in the figures of special education (139 pupils in special nursery education, 216 pupils in special primary education and 238 pupils in special secondary education). Pupils and students enrolled in French language schools or in French language sections of Dutch language schools coming under the authority of the Flemish authorities are not included in the figures either. Yet, for higher education, courses in other languages are included in the figures. Since the 2004-2005 academic year, Flemish tertiary education has been organising courses leading to Bachelor and Master degrees. In Flanders, Bachelor courses are professionally oriented or academically oriented. Academically oriented bachelor programmes are mainly intended to make students pass on to master courses. A professionally oriented bachelor can take a master course after successful completion of a bridging programme. The study volume of bachelor courses amounts to minimum 180 credits. The study volume of master courses amounts to minimum 60 credits. As from the 2005-2006 academic year, the traditional year system is replaced by a more flexible system of credits.

General information

Schools A school is an institution which provides education and which is managed by one school head. In continuing education, the term â€œcentre for adult educationâ€? is used. Institutions providing special education type 5 are not included in the figures (6 schools in special nursery education, 6 schools in special primary education and 4 schools in special secondary education).

Staff

1 2 3 4 5 6

Staff statistics only register staff members either paid directly by the Education and Training policy domain or staff members whose salaries are covered by the block grant awarded to higher education. As a consequence, staff members benefiting from the pre-pension scheme (TBS55+) are included in the figures. Maintenance, technical and service staff in subsidised educational networks is not included. Subsidised contractual staff is not taken into account either, as these staff members are not fully paid by the Education and Training policy domain. Contractual staff in tenured posts are included in the figures. Staff data on the 2007-2008 school year relate to January 2008, as known in June 2008. University staff data were provided by the Flemish Interuniversity Council (Vl. I.R.) and relate to February 1, 2007. Data on the 20072008 academic year were not available at the time of going to press of this publication. As far as education staff is concerned, a distinction is made between managing and teaching staff on the one hand and other staff categories on the other. Managing staff consists of school heads and deputy heads. Teaching staff carries out a teaching assignment or benefiting from the pre-pension sheme. Other staff categories comprise administrative staff, manual staff of Community education, educational support staff, paramedic staff, staff of Pupil Guidance Centres, inspectorate staff, educational supervision staff, staff in boarding schools and child carers in nursery education. In elementary education, managing and teaching staff includes, as of the 2003-2004 school year, physical education teachers (in nursery education) and special care co-ordinators.

Numbers of staff members are expressed in physical persons. Physical persons are registered for the education level and education network where they carry out their main teaching assignment. The number of staff members expressed in full-time equivalents is the sum of all partial assignments of all staff members (in other words including the replacements of less than one year). In colleges of higher education, teaching assignments of visiting professors and mandate fees are not included in the full-time equivalents. As for university education, figures on staff include visiting professors and early retired in terms of staff members, and not in the budgetary full-time equivalents.

Budget The budget is expressed in terms of available operating appropriations which are estimated annually and entered into the (adjusted) expenditure budget of the Flemish authorities. The operating appropriations comprise non-differentiated appropriations, differentiated commitment appropriations, variable appropriations, authorisations and additional appropriations of previous years, decreased by appropriations intended to cover the liquidation of commitments and by expenditure intended to cover debt load. The term available appropriations means that these appropriations in addition to the appropriations mentioned above also comprise the share of overall provisions (mainly index and collective agreement) and reallocations of appropriations. Data for 2008 relate to the appropriations after the first budgetary control. Certain cross-level expenses, of which the breakdown among the different levels is known, are allocated to the respective levels (amongst other things educational priority policy and investments). Without this adjustment one gets a distorted picture of the actual expenses per level. For 2008 the actual data are not available yet and the same breakdown as in 2007 was proposed. Thus, these figures do not take account of the efforts paid by other (local) authorities, nor of the efforts paid by parents, schools and private companies.

General information The cost per pupil is calculated on the basis of the number of pupils eligible for funding. A pupil eligible for funding is a regularly registered pupil who gets a weighting factor on the grounds of certain criteria such as education level, course of study, origin, ... The number of pupils eligible for funding defines the size of the operating budget and the staff of each education institution. Amounts are expressed in thousands of euros, unless specified otherwise.

SPECIAL EDUCATION

(1) Everyone who succeeded in the second year of the third stage or passed an entrance exam, can enrol in the 4th stage of vocational education. (2) Modular education is not split up into stages and years and is therefore not included in this scheme. (3) The former one-cycle courses at the colleges for higher education are transformed into professional bachelor courses. (4) The former two-cycle courses at the colleges for higher education and the academic courses at the universities are transformed into academic bachelor courses and master courses. These courses are transformed from an at least two-year candidate course and an at least one-year master course. Candidate degrees are not declared equal to bachelor degrees.

In 2006 the Flemish ministry was reorganised (the BBB-organisation), wich aims to improve administrative management. From the financial year 2008 on the budget structure is brought in coherence with the new organisation. Due to this, the budget by level of education has been adapted. In order to keep a comparable evolution the data have been reviewed according to the new structure.

(1) Not taking into account possible changes within the Flemish budget to and from the education budget. (2) GRP (of Flanders) is expressed in genuine market prices. (3) These percentages should not be confused with those used in international publications. On an international level we use the OECD definition; where all expenditures towards educational institutions are taken into account. This includes not only the education budget, but also the expenditures of communities, expenditures VIZO, expenditures for research and development, the cost of the education department, child support for 18-25-year-olds, European means and pensions. The available series for Flanders are shown under (4).

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS

Besides these schools there were 6 schools organizing special education of type 5 (for pupils with long-term illness). They provide special nursery education as well as special primary education. These schools are not included in the data.

(1) Schools providing both nursery and primary education are included in the number of nursery schools as well as in the number of primary schools. As a consequence, the sum of the number of nursery schools and the number of primary schools is higher than the number of elementary schools. In the 2007-2008 school year there were 169 autonomous nursery schools, 179 autonomous primary schools and 1,961 elementary schools organizing both nursery and primary education in regular elementary education. In special elementary education, there were no autonomous nursery schools, 96 autonomous primary schools and 94 elementary schools organizing both nursery and primary education.
