Preschool Learning Tools: Screens vs. Play

The Liberals propose an investigation into digital tools in Stockholm's preschools, aiming for clear guidelines and screen-free environments, except for older children with a pedagogical purpose, citing concerns about screen time's negative impact on development. The city responds that the new preschool curriculum, effective July 1, 2025, already removes digital tool requirements, emphasizes analog learning for younger children, and that the Swedish National Agency for Education is developing support materials. Therefore, the city leadership believes the motion's intentions are met and preschool teachers should retain professional discretion over learning tools.
