Annual report 2026
Skolkoll in numbers — key metrics, milestones completed and the plan ahead.
Key metrics
Latest sync: 7 May 2026. Data primarily covers the 2023/24 school year.
Milestones completed
Phase 1: Data lineage and canonical definitions
Critical data inventory, risk matrix and canonical definitions for all key metrics. Harmonisation of methodology text with actual implementation.
Phase 2: Trust UI — quality signals
Unified quality flag system in the UI. Users should understand how reliable a figure is without leaving the page.
Phase 3: Reproducible datasets — versioning
Dataset versioning with timestamps, metadata files and schema history. Every dataset can be referenced as a specific version.
Phase 4: Entity model and temporal relations
Stable entity model with history for name changes, status changes and relations. Time-bound relationships between providers and groups.
Phase 5: Automated changelog
Global and local changelog with categorisation: new data, corrections, methodology changes and schema changes.
Phase 6: Journalist and analyst mode
Landing page for journalists with theme packages, method cards and export points. Packaging for quick analysis and citation.
Phase 7: API beta
Read-only API with documentation for core resources. Metadata in every response: source, quality flags and comparability.
Phase 8: Search moat — SEO and canonical landing pages
Canonical URL structure, prioritised landing pages with genuine content value and improved internal linking.
Phase 9: Editorial interpretation layer — interpretation guides
Editorial explanation pages for hard-to-interpret metrics. Interpretation guides linked directly from data views.
Phase 10: Guided decision support — school choice guide
Transparent school choice guide with explanations, quality status and data quality awareness in the recommendation logic.
In progress
Phase 11: Public accountability and pre-governance — Public annual report, corrections policy, versioning policy, method policy, transparency page and open roadmap. Trust package for external review. (8/13 sub-issues complete)

Limitations and plan
- Data may be 1–12 months old depending on the source.
- Skolverket's confidentiality rule (<15 pupils) hides data for small schools.
- Pageviews and unique visitors are not yet available — analytics not configured.
- Manual KPIs (corrections, citations) are updated on an ongoing basis during the year.
See the roadmap for upcoming phases and the transparency page for details on automation and bias.
