Pupils who require regular
support or several different forms of support in their learning or
education must be provided with intensified support, which is based on a
pedagogical assessment and follows the pupil's learning plan.
Intensified support is offered when general support is not sufficient.
Pupils are provided with special support if the objectives for their
growth, development or learning cannot be met using other support
measures. Special support is offered either in the scope of general or
extended compulsory education. Special support covers special needs
education, which is dependent on a decision on special support, and
other forms of support available in basic education. The purpose of
flexible basic education is to support pupils in grades 7–9 who are at
risk of leaving school without the basic education certificate. Flexible
comprehensive school does not usually include special needs education.
Note! The reports are subject to data protection measures. Numbers of 1-4 persons are shown as "1-4" and larger numbers are rounded to the nearest multiple of three. Percentages are calculated using the protected numbers.
