Stockholm has a total of 247 active compulsory schools according to Skolverket's register. Preschools, upper-secondary schools and adult education are not included in this figure — they are reported separately.

142 of the schools are run by the municipality and 105 by a non-municipal operator (independent schools). Both are funded by the same pupil voucher.

The count is updated continuously as Skolverket registers new school units or closes existing ones. Skolkoll syncs the register weekly.
