Preschool statistics
Key figures for GIRAFFEN FÖRÄDRAFÖRENINGEN NORDGÅRD. Compared to municipal and national averages.
Staff educational background (2025)
Skolverket's mutually exclusive categories for staff in the preschool unit. The figures come from Skolverket's annual survey; staff hired after the survey appear first in the next survey.
| Category | This preschool | Municipality | National |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pedagogical higher educationpreschool teachers and others with a Swedish higher-education degree | 23% | 51.3% | 44.3% |
| Upper-secondary qualification for work with childrenchildcare assistant training or equivalent | 0% | 13.8% | 15.4% |
| Some pedagogical trainingfor example parts of a pedagogical education | 26% | – | – |
| Other educationother education, including foreign qualifications not validated in Sweden | 52% | – | – |
| Other educational background (combined)comparison row for the two categories that municipal and national statistics publish together | 77% | 34.9% | 40.2% |
Of which preschool-teacher degree: 23%
Preschool-teacher licence (share of full-time posts): 36% · Municipality 52.1% · National 44.7%
A preschool-teacher licence is Skolverket's proof that someone is a qualified preschool teacher; as a rule, only licensed preschool teachers may be responsible for teaching. Pedagogical higher education means a university degree with a teaching focus, with or without a licence. The measures are counted separately, so the share with a licence can be higher than the share with pedagogical higher education.
Children enrolled (2025)
| Share | This preschool | National |
|---|---|---|
| Share of girls | 57% (exact value 57.1%) | 48.6% |
| Children with a foreign background (born abroad, or both parents born abroad) Including children who were not in the population register on 30 September of that year. | Not reported (Skolverket)Skolverket does not publish this value, and Skolkoll does not estimate it.Not reported (Skolverket) — Skolverket does not publish this value, and Skolkoll does not estimate it. | 24.2% |
| Children with at least one parent with post-secondary education | No dataThe Swedish National Agency for Education has not published this value.No data — the Swedish National Agency for Education has not published this value. | 68.1% |
The figures describe which children are enrolled, not the preschool's quality, and affect no rankings on Skolkoll. The shares vary a lot between municipalities and neighbourhoods; the national figure is a reference, not a norm. At a small preschool a single child can move a share by several percentage points. Skolverket does not publish a value that rests on few children, so small preschools often lack it.
