The government wants municipal schools to be able to receive a higher tuition fee than independent schools.
They also want the selection criteria for school choice to be changed by limiting the possibility of queuing children for independent schools.
The purpose is to counteract segregation and the gaps in the school, Minister of Education Lina Axelsson Kihlblom (S) explained when the proposals were presented earlier this year.
But now the Moderates, the Christian Democrats, the Sweden Democrats, the Liberals and the Center Party have gone the same way in submitting follow-up motions to stop the government's school policy.
- It is up to the principal to mix the school, and it is unclear what requirements are set.
It is dangerous, you use the children as an integration tool, says Lars Hjälmerud, the Moderates' school policy spokesman, to Aftonbladet.
- The Minister of Education is building a conflict between municipal schools against independent schools.
The big differences are between city and country.
The five parties have no ready-made alternative, but today agree, among other things, to keep the queuing system in limited form.
