Is there an umbrella term for this in English?

English translation:student on a combined work-study programme
Explanation:
As a suggestion. A little wordy perhaps but conveys the meaning I feel. "Dual student" doesn't do it for me in English.

Explanation:
***Juridisch-Economisch Lexicon:

duale leerweg = work-study programme
duaal leren = dual learning, dual training
duaal onderwijs = course provided on a dual basis, dual education
duale opleiding = dual training course
duaal student = dual student, work-study student
duaal systeem = dual system

*** Notebook Nederlandse en Vlaamse onderwijstermen in het Engels:
duaal leren = dual training (a combination of work experience and part-time schooling)

See e.g.:

‘The work-study student is an important member of the office staff. The person will assist with general office duties such as answering the telephone, preparing mailings, posting fliers on campus, doing some computer work, filing, keeping VHS/DVD Resource Library organized, checking in/out VHS/DVDs for students and faculty, scanning and copying materials, performing light office cleaning and maintenance, and various other tasks as assigned.’ (http://www.unl.edu/careers/work-study-student-jobs )

‘The Work Study Student Handbook contains helpful information on finding jobs, getting paid, the On-Campus Payroll Schedule, and other Work Study questions.’ (https://www.washington.edu/students/osfa/ugaid/workstudy.pos... )

‘Nancy Stanifer, a work-study student in thePresident's Office, packs up for the move.’ (http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:PltpKMN... )

‘If I hire a WORK-STUDY student, what is his/her maximum earnings?

(...)

If the WORK-STUDY student(s) that I hired, decide to divide/work with another non-profit organization or a UCSC department(s), who is responsible to split the work-study award?’ (http://careers.ucsc.edu/staff/hire_info.html )

‘General information:
• Maximum of 20 hours per week.
• Students can only be in one work study job at a time
• Work Study students must be paid at least minimum wage. Wage must be within reason to the position and other employees in a similar position’ (www.fao.ucla.edu/workstudy/pdf/2013-2014/Student_guide.pdf )

Given that this seems to be specific to a number of European countries (see e.g.: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duaal_onderwijs <-> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_education_system ) it might be better to use sth like: ‘dual education programme’ (with the Dutch and/or an explanation in brackets).

‘A dual education system combines apprenticeships in a company and vocational education at a vocational school in one course. This system is practiced in several countries, notably Germany, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Slovenia, Macedonia, Montenegro and Switzerland, but also Denmark, the Netherlands and France, and for some years now in China and other countries in Asia.’ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_education_system )

See e.g.:

‘The course is a so-called 'dual education programme' i.e. students spend 50% of the course at university and 50% in completing an internship with a sports-related organisation.’ (http://www.sportanddev.org/en/toolkit/research_corner/academ... )

‘A third group is very small (3%) and follows a dual education programme for their Bachelors. Twothird of them was older than 23 year.’ (http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:uEV-zcK... )
