special needs classes
Explanation:
... of 'special needs schooling' of 'facilitative schooling' (dit laatste komt misschien een beetje euphemistisch over).

"Each special class has a class teacher and the support of a special needs assistant. Where, children with milder forms of autism are capable of attending ordinary schools on an integrated basis, they are supported by a special needs assistant and a resource teacher"

Some teachers attempt to handle remedial teaching regularly by working with one, two or three most needy students. This involves extra individual coaching for a few pupils.

Learning support / remedial teaching


Explanation:
What I can gather from the information regarding VMBO, and the following reference, it seems that this refers to learning support which is effected by remedial teaching for those pupils with learning difficulties that would not prevent them completing their education:

"Speciaal onderwijs in vijf stappen


Leerwegondersteunend onderwijs



De leerlingen
Leerwegondersteunend onderwijs is bedoeld voor leerlingen die in staat zijn een regulier diploma te behalen in een van de leerwegen, maar dit niet kunnen zonder extra zorg.
Het gaat om leerlingen die in het verleden opgevangen werden binnen het SVO-LOM en IVBO."

I hope this helps.
