There are both positive and less positive parts in the investigator Magnus Henrekson's report, according to the Left Party.
We are pleased with the proposal to abolish the F grade, which we already thought in the previous grading investigation, says Daniel Riazat (V).
But changing the grading system does not address the underlying problem, he believes.
Changing the system is patching and repairing. The underlying problem is the market school, which must be abolished to get rid of grade inflation, he says.
Even the Green Party's Camilla Hansén believes that the market school is the root cause of the grade inflation, but sees that there are positive parts in the investigation.
It is a great relief that there are proposals to remove the sharp pass limit. The F grade is directly harmful to students' mental health and closes many doors, she says.
Risk of stress
The investigator's proposal to give national tests a greater weight in the grades is viewed with some concern.
The national tests are something that students describe as causing stress and ill-health. It is worrying if we are moving towards an old-fashioned student exam, but we need to delve into the proposals in detail.
The Social Democrats' education policy spokesperson Åsa Westlund is positive about much of what the investigation proposes, including abolishing the F grade. However, there are still several question marks, she believes.
It is not enough to just remove the F grade. There must also be more paths to upper secondary school for young people in practice. National programs that more can attend than today, says Åsa Westlund.
From the teachers' union, the Swedish Teachers, one sees the proposals as a first step towards a more equal school.
Replacing the F grade can be a puzzle piece. But other measures are also needed, such as regulating teachers' conditions for teaching and learning nationally, says Vice Chairman Robin Smith.
The government changed
Before the grading investigation, there was no support from the government and the SD for abolishing the F grade.
But since the Tidö Agreement was written, a shift has occurred. The Liberals' Johan Pehrson and Lotta Edholm went out in the autumn and took a stand for replacing the F grade with a more "nuanced system" that does not exclude a large proportion of students from upper secondary education.
Since then, the Christian Democrats and The Moderate Party have also shifted and want to abolish the sharp fail limit.
