About This Opportunity

This state grant is designed to support Swedish municipalities in providing education to children residing in Sweden without legal authorization, known as undocumented children. The grant helps municipalities cover costs associated with educating these children across various school forms including preschool class, primary school, adapted primary school, special school, Sami school, upper secondary school, and adapted upper secondary school. Children who come to Sweden under the EU's mass flight directive are not covered by this grant as they have legal grounds for staying in the country. Undocumented children have no school obligation, and the right to upper secondary education only applies if the child started studies before the age of 18.
