Skolkoll Score 49 out of 100. The scale goes from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest). Composite index.

Data coverageHigh4/5
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.

4 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.

  • Study environment upper sec. year 2
  • Number of pupils
  • The school survey relies on voluntary responses and results can vary substantially between years for small samples.
  • This staffing metric is affected by FTE definitions, local reporting practices, and temporary vacancies. For preschools without a compulsory or upper-secondary school, the same field instead holds the share of staff with pedagogical higher education (see the measure Share with pedagogical higher education).
  • Costs are affected by accounting practices, rent levels, and service mix, and should mainly be compared across similar school types.
  • This staffing metric is affected by FTE definitions, local reporting practices, and temporary vacancies.
  • Pupil counts may be privacy-suppressed for small units and are not always updated on the same cadence as other indicators.
