New school for kids with language issues?

The Centre Party has proposed that Stockholm investigate creating a language school for children with severe language disorders from preschool class to third grade, aiming to provide a better start in elementary school and continuous language development support, similar to existing language preschools. While the City Executive Board acknowledges the importance of early intervention, it believes a separate school is unnecessary given current support available in schools, such as a competence hub at Eriksdalsskolan and collaboration with the National Agency for Special Needs Education and Schools. However, organizations like Attention Stockholm and the Swedish Association of Speech-Language Pathologists support the language school proposal.
