Additionally, we have our important social pedagogues in middle and upper secondary school, who are key figures in our safety work. Together, we work to strengthen both students' knowledge development and their well-being.

We want to build a systematic quality work where the competencies of the student health team are fully utilized and developed to create accessible, compensatory, and inclusive learning environments. Here, you have the opportunity to contribute and be involved in shaping how student health work is organized moving forward.
