Verdict: Correct decision to revoke school permits

The Security Service's information about links to violence-approving extremism in the leadership of four schools was sufficient to revoke the school permits. This is stated by the Administrative Court of Appeal in a ruling.

The Swedish Schools Inspectorate's revocation from earlier this year, which was appealed by the schools' principals, shall therefore stand, according to the verdict.

The Swedish Schools Inspectorate received information from the Security Service in supervisory cases that individuals in the ownership and management circles of the four schools, among other things, had been in contact with individuals who sympathize with violence-promoting extremists.

The Administrative Court of Appeal assesses that students ran "a concrete risk of being exposed to influence aimed at opposing fundamental freedoms and rights or the democratic system of government".

It concerns two schools in Stockholm, one in Gothenburg, and one in Örebro.
