The Landelijk Aktie Komitee Scholieren (LAKS) is an organisation of, for and run by secondary school students. LAKS is best known for its hotline for complaints about exams – it gets around 80,000 a year. Some of these are a little bizarre. For example there was a call from a girl who said the exam supervisor was so handsome he put her off her work. Then there was the Protestant boy who refused to answer a question about homosexuality and two complaints from pupils with such difficult maths questions that their calculators seized up. Yeah right.
