The administration suggests that the District Director be tasked with signing the agreement for an annual sum of 200,000 SEK.

The Järva District Council will review a proposal to enter into an idea-driven public partnership (IOP) with IOGT-NTO Spånga. This collaboration, running from May 2026 to April 2029, aims to enhance children and young people's knowledge, engagement, and influence regarding sustainability, recycling, and local decision-making processes. The District Director is proposed to be authorized to sign the agreement, which includes an annual grant of 500,000 SEK to IOGT-NTO Spånga.

The Järva District Council is set to review its April 2026 monthly report, with the administration recommending approval. The report indicates that the operating budget and investments are projected to be in balance after transfers, detailing specific budget adjustments and forecasts across areas like individual and family care, preschools, elder care, and urban environment, including initiatives for biodiversity and safety.

The Real Estate Committee will decide on renovating the former Kämpinge School to create a new administrative office for the Järva City District Administration. This extensive conversion will adapt the school for office use by approximately 640 employees, aiming to optimize space utilization and reduce the city's costs. The building will be upgraded to meet modern standards, providing a contemporary workplace with an estimated move-in during Q4 2028.

The Järva City District Council is tasked with preparing a report for the 2027 budget, with guidance for 2028 and 2029. This report will analyze Järva's development in the coming years, covering demographics, local needs and challenges, and plans for facilities and staffing. This document will serve as crucial support for the Municipal Executive Board in their work on the city's overall budget.

The Education Administration received an inquiry from Jan Jönsson (L) concerning how Stockholm schools prevent youth crime on social media. Jönsson asked about efforts to educate students on laws and consequences, encourage reporting of victimization, and inform parents. The administration proposes the Education Committee approve their response detailing ongoing work like teaching, values education, police collaboration, and parental information, while also acknowledging room for improvement.

The Centre Party has questioned the Education Committee on the city's efforts against female genital mutilation, highlighting it as a serious and often overlooked abuse, urging a more structured approach like Västerås. The Education Administration responded that they address this through health visits for students, including newly arrived ones, where questions about health, including circumcision, are asked. Students with issues can be referred to Södersjukhuset's AMEL clinic, and school staff have received training and access to knowledge support.

The Education Committee is set to discuss the proposed "Action Plan for a Gender Equal Stockholm 2030," which aims to ensure equal rights and opportunities for all Stockholmers regardless of gender, linked to the city's human rights program. While the Education Administration supports the plan's ambitions and its inclusion of non-binary and transgender individuals, it suggests revisions for clarity and proposes that the city add an impact assessment of its financial and administrative effects.

The City Executive Board has forwarded a proposed program for events in Stockholm to the Education Committee for review. The program aims to position Stockholm as a leading event city, enhancing its appeal and contributing to sustainable growth and quality of life for residents. The Education Administration supports the program but requests that it emphasize the city's own employees as a key target group to foster internal pride and ambassadorship.

The City Executive Board is proposed to decide that the city's committees should transition to using digital rather than paper personnel files. This move is expected to enhance security, efficiency, and consistency in handling personnel documents, with the scanning of old files and associated work estimated to cost approximately 70 million SEK over five years, funded through the city's IT budget.

The Education Committee is to consider proposals from a government inquiry (SOU 2025:123) aimed at tightening conditions for independent schools and preschools. These proposals, which the Education Administration supports, seek to reduce the risk of disreputable operators by introducing mandatory municipal opinions for new establishments, clearer assessments of negative consequences, stricter ownership and suitability checks, and a requirement for new applications upon changes to operations. This is expected to improve education for Stockholm's students and enhance the municipality's planning capabilities.

The City Executive Board has forwarded the "Principals in Focus – Conditions for Pedagogical Leadership" inquiry (SOU 2026:4) to the Education Board for their opinion. The inquiry proposes strengthening principals' pedagogical leadership by clarifying their role, limiting their responsibilities, and increasing training requirements. While the Education Administration largely supports the proposals, they reject the idea of reserving principal training solely for principals, arguing that assistant principals should continue to be eligible to ensure competence supply and reduce principal turnover.

The Education Administration proposes a five-year extension of Tellusborgsskolan's lease, starting January 1, 2028. This new agreement combines existing ones and is expected to reduce the annual rent by approximately 7.6 million SEK from 2028. Concurrently, the landlord plans to upgrade the school's ventilation system and carry out minor maintenance, improving the indoor environment for the roughly 760 students, with the work coordinated with the school to minimize disruption.

The Education Administration proposes that the Education Committee approve a revised direction for the HIN project, which aims to address easily remediated accessibility barriers in Stockholm's primary schools. The project has so far addressed 75 schools, with approximately 40 remaining. The new direction seeks to increase time and cost efficiency and align with the city's accessibility and participation program for people with disabilities, which means basing efforts on the National Board of Housing, Building and Planning's definition of easily remediated barriers.

The City Executive Board has requested the Education Committee's opinion on the government inquiry "Improved Student Health" (SOU 2025:113), which aims to clarify the purpose and care mandate of student health services, ensure staffing, and facilitate collaboration with healthcare and social services. While the Education Administration supports strengthening student health, it criticizes proposals for increased state micro-management, stricter educational requirements for school counselors, and an expanded care mandate, estimating an annual additional cost of SEK 45 million for the City of Stockholm.

The Education Committee is set to approve budget documentation for 2027–2029, outlining future challenges and priorities for Stockholm's schools. Key areas include improving equity between schools, managing declining primary school enrollment, and adapting upper secondary schools to meet labor market needs. The committee also aims to review premises and administrative costs to reallocate more funds towards instruction.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council is set to review a report on collaborations with non-profit organizations in 2025. The administration assesses these partnerships, including those with Convictus to combat homelessness and with Farsta Parish/Stora Sköndal for recreational activities for young people with disabilities, have functioned well and yielded positive results. The council is proposed to file the report.

A housing plan for eastern Söderort (Enskede-Årsta-Vantör, Skarpnäck, and Farsta) for 2026-2036 will be addressed. The plan proposes a need for a total of 323 new housing units with special services for people with disabilities by 2036. The region also sees a need to develop new types of housing, such as profile housing for specific target groups and first homes for young adults.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council will review a report on the follow-up of association grants for the 2025 operating year. The council awarded a total of SEK 935,000 to 30 associations, and the administration has verified that the grants were used correctly. The report indicates overall good compliance, though the administration awaits supplementary information from two associations regarding their accounting.

The Enskede-Årsta-Vantör District Council is set to review a proposed detailed plan for Snösätra Culture Park in Rågsved, aiming to transform the Snösätra storage area into a permanent culture park featuring urban art and cultural activities. While the district administration supports the proposal, it suggests adjusting the opening towards Snösätragränd for improved recreational use, and further investigating funding and responsibility for the area.
