Scholieren

“Scholieren” is a Dutch term that refers to students, particularly those attending secondary school or high school. The word is derived from “scholier,” which translates directly to “scholar” or “pupil” in English. It encompasses individuals who are engaged in formal education at an intermediate level, typically ranging from ages 12 to 18. Scholieren are usually involved in a structured educational environment where they learn various subjects as part of their curriculum. The term emphasizes not only the status of these individuals as learners but also their participation in the academic and social aspects of school life.
