Skolkoll Score 56 out of 100. The scale goes from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest). 50 is the average. Better than 96% of Sweden’s compulsory schools.

A composite of five open data sources — a starting point, not a grade.

The score reflects results directly. Given the pupil intake, the school still performs in line with expectations — see value-added.

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.

Group name and SALSA score need extra caution

This applies only to the values listed here.

This value is missing in full or in part.

This affects

  • Group name
  • SALSA score
  • Annual reports are not real-time data, so group links may lag behind reorganisations or recent ownership changes. Manual overrides are used only as exceptions.
  • SALSA is model-based and becomes less stable for small pupil groups or schools with rapidly changing pupil composition.

Other values here do not have this specific note.
