The steering system
The Swedish school system is a goal-based system with a high degree of local responsibility. The main responsibility lies with the municipalities and authorities responsible for independent schools.
The overall national goals are set out by Swedish Parliament and Government in:
• The Education Act• Curricula• Course syllabi for compulsory school etc. • Program goals for upper secondary school

The Swedish case study
Possible solutions• Focus on “entrepreneurial learning” –
especially motivation• Skills development for teachers• Challenging traditional teaching
patterns – more interdisciplinary work
