New measures to prevent exam theft
Final exams will be sent out to schools later and in tamper resistant packaging, starting this school year, announced State Secretary of Education, Sander Dekker.

To prevent that from happening again, exams will be sent out later, and in tamper resistant envelopes, that will make it impossible to re-seal the package the same way. These and other planned measures should enhance the security even further, according to Dekker. 'At the same time incidents can never be ruled out. There is no such thing as a 100 percent fraud-proof system. There will always be new challenges that require resilience and flexibility,' said Dekker.
