The Competence Center for Multilingualism works to ensure that students have the opportunity to be taught in their mother tongue and receive tutoring in the language they know best. Today, 38 different languages are represented within the organization. We cooperate with both municipal and independent principals, from preschool to upper secondary school. Pupils who have at least one guardian with a mother tongue other than Swedish are given the opportunity to study their language as a separate school subject. Through mother tongue education, pupils strengthen their multilingualism, develop their identity and build pride in their language and background.
