At the beginning of the pandemic, the then government added half a billion kroner in pandemic support to the Board of Education.

The money went to folk high schools all over the country, which then, among other things, had the opportunity to open up more places for participants.

At the turn of the year, the temporary pandemic support disappeared, which was met with criticism from folk universities in the country, which now need to cancel courses and review their staff.

In the Tidö Agreement, it appears that the government wants to reform and streamline the public education system.
