Skolkoll Score 63 out of 100. The scale goes from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest). Composite index.
Limited confidence: the sample is small, so the score may vary more than usual.

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. The pupil sample is limited.

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.
