Roosendaal is developing a longer-term approach to housing for schools and municipalities, with the aim of bringing more order to the areas around school buildings and providing greater clarity for the coming years. The municipality is not working only on annual plans.

In Breda, education alderman Arjen van Drunen said he was uncomfortable with the attitude of the new Novum Saeculum Islamic school, claiming that agreements were not being kept and that there was no cooperation. The school wants to expand in Breda and open a branch in Roosendaal, where the plans are still pending.
