Helping students with school absenteeism return

Andréa Hedin (M) questioned Vice Mayor Alexander Ojanne (S) about the evaluated School Social Teams Plus (SST+) project, which helps students with high absenteeism return to school, specifically why only 28 of 60 spots were filled, how it will be developed to reach more students, and when it will be available to all students in Stockholm. Ojanne responded that SST+ has many positive effects, and the city has allocated funds to make it permanent and gradually implement it, with a new, integrated approach currently being tested in certain districts and set for evaluation in summer 2026 before wider rollout.
