Social Democrats want to cut funding for private schools by up to 11 percent

After the election, we Social Democrats will prioritise quickly putting a stop to the leakage through school funding, says Anders Ygeman, education policy spokesperson, at a press conference.

S is going to the polls to introduce a profit ban in schools and preschools. But on the way to that, they want to reduce independent schools' flat-rate compensation through school funding, which municipalities pay out per student to both municipal and independent providers.

Such measures should be implemented as early as next year, according to the party.

S also wants to see a total ban on value transfers and a small school reform of 12 students per teacher in primary school. The first steps for a small school reform should be in place by 2028, according to the party.
