In the case of Växjö school, the exclusion is motivated by the fact that its founder has preached about children being raised to jihad in school.

"Jihad has several meanings within Islam, but the government's center for violent extremism, CVE, interprets the school chairman's sermon as violence-advocating", writes Almega education in a press release.

Tala förskolor AB, which has run three preschools, is excluded with reference to the fact that one of the preschools was closed by the City of Stockholm due to serious deficiencies in child safety and environment.

Also, the Arena group, where the companies Edinit and Humanus Syd are included, is excluded from Almega education.

"In light of the major security deficiencies that have existed within the Arena group, the management's trust to run a school or preschool has been exhausted", says association director Andreas Mörck in the press release.
