About Teach for Sweden

Teach for Sweden is a non-profit organization that started in 2013 due to declining school results in Swedish schools. 1 in 7 students graduate from ninth grade without qualifications for high school. At the same time, almost one in three teachers is unqualified in primary school today. We recruit participants who want to make a difference and train them to become skilled teachers and leaders. Together, we create a school where all children, regardless of background, have a chance to succeed and choose their own future.
