Attaining the qualifications needed to get into upper secondary school is one of the most important factors in securing a better future in our modern knowledge-based society.
In the 2019/2020 academic year, 16,480 Swedish ninth graders (aged 16) had still not managed to achieve upper secondary school entrance qualifications at the time of leaving school. That's roughly 15 per cent. Parental education level is the single most important factor affecting a pupil's chances of passing their exams at the end of compulsory schooling. For pupils whose parents have a high level of education the figure is lower, while it is higher for those whose parents have a lower level of education.

The programme helps ensure more pupils pass their exams at the end of compulsory school, and gives them confidence for the future.
