Skolkoll Score 45 out of 100. The scale goes from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest). 50 is the average. Better than 65% of Sweden’s compulsory schools.

A composite of five open data sources — a starting point, not a grade.

The score reflects results directly. Given the pupil intake, the school still performs in line with expectations — see value-added.

Data coverageMedium3/5
Why this score?

Skolkoll score is Skolkoll's composite indicator based on available data sources. It is not an official quality measure and should be read together with the underlying data.

3 of 5 score dimensions have school-specific data.

When school-specific data is missing for a dimension, the neutral value 50 is used. That does not automatically lower the school, but it makes the score less informative.

Group name and SALSA score need extra caution

This applies only to the values listed here.

This value is missing in full or in part.

This affects

  • Group name
  • SALSA score
  • Annual reports are not real-time data, so group links may lag behind reorganisations or recent ownership changes. Manual overrides are used only as exceptions.
  • SALSA is model-based and becomes less stable for small pupil groups or schools with rapidly changing pupil composition.

Other values here do not have this specific note.

School survey perspectives

Pupils, guardians and staff — same school, different answers

Survey results broken down by respondent group on a 0–10 scale. Groups can experience the same school very differently — notable gaps are highlighted below.

Text summary of the chart:

  • Pupils: Safety too few responses, Study environment too few responses, Stimulation too few responses, Support too few responses, Anti-bullying too few responses.
  • Guardians: Safety too few responses, Study environment too few responses, Stimulation too few responses, Support too few responses.

Results with fewer than 5 responses are shown as “too few responses”.

Automatically flagged gaps

At least one respondent group has too few responses on the overlapping measures, so gaps cannot be calculated.

Staff results are not published per school by Skolinspektionen today, so the staff view appears only when available.

How should SALSA be read?

SALSA is a statistical comparison metric, not a school rating. Small cohorts and individual year groups can create uncertain signals, so read it together with pupil counts, survey data and other sources.
