Sweden's 100 best compulsory schools 2024/25

The 100 top-ranked compulsory schools in Sweden by Skolkoll score — the 0–100 measure that combines results, staffing, value-added, safety and resources. Unlike raw final-grade scores, it can compare schools fairly across municipalities.

How we ranked

This list ranks all active compulsory schools in Sweden by Skolkoll score, the same 0–100 measure shown on school pages. Only schools with a robust sample (at least 25 pupils, "normal" confidence) are included — a national list should not be topped by a small school on a thin sample. Where a dimension lacks school-specific data the national median is used. The Year 9 final-grade score is shown for context.

Note: "Best" here is a data-driven comparison based on public statistics — not necessarily the best school for your child. Location, pedagogical profile, well-being and pupil composition also matter. Read the full methodology →
