More than two thirds of the pupils use these pupil lines.

The province of North Brabant is working on a new tender for public transport between 2025 and 2035. In the current draft program of requirements, a large part of the school routes to Curio Prinsentuin Andel will be deleted. More than two-thirds of the pupils use these pupil lines and for this reason, among other things, a petition started.

The city council and the school board of Curio are very concerned about this development. The initiators of the petition believe that the province does not realize enough what the disappearance of the school lines to Curio Prinsentuin Andel means. In addition, no reasonable transport alternative is offered and by eliminating the bus lines, a large group of students from a large area including Dongen, Oosterhout, Raamsdonksveer and Waalwijk will be denied the opportunity to experience a very pleasant secondary school time at this school.

"A student has to make a choice which school suits him or her. Not whether a school is accessible or not."

Removing the lines means that in the future students will no longer be able to travel safely to Curio Prinsentuin Andel to follow the education of their choice. The students, parents/guardians, staff and other stakeholders of the Curio Prince Garden Andel School therefore request the province to maintain the school lines to Curio Prince Garden Andel.

The VMBO school has been providing good education to all students from the BB, KB and GL/TL pathway for years. In addition to a package of general, practical and electives from various sectors, the club also offers teachers here with an enormous care component. Pupils receive help in the field of dyslexia, study skills and social-emotional problems. In addition to Curio's strong protest against the province, the school also works with the municipality of Altena, which indicates that the consequences are unacceptable.
