Hoping to move over to Sweden shortly and wondering how our kids will get in with schooling.

Hello, Other than my reply to your private message I can add that Sweden has handled 100s of thousands students who fled to Sweden from different parts of the world since 1980s, who could not speak a single word of Swedish. They have a solid pedagogic system to train students Swedish language and the same time to keep them up with the curriculum. All you have to do is to choose nearest school to your future address from the list I sent you. If they would have another better school which focus specifically on newly arrived students they would recommend it.

Following is the site of Swedish national agency for education, if anything you wonder you can always contact them and ask it. You already have the website of Piteå kommun you can ask them too or the website of the school you will select from the list.  https://www.skolverket.se/andra-sprak-o … h-engelska
