Healthcare education and driving license proposal rejected

Jan Jönsson (L) proposed creating a "Viva Lyceum healthcare" by merging Komvux and upper secondary healthcare programs to boost interest in healthcare professions, suggesting the city co-finance driving licenses for successful students, inspired by Skövde municipality. However, the majority in the City Executive Board and several committees rejected the proposal, citing existing efforts, lack of suitable premises at Kungsholmen's Västra gymnasium, and potential pedagogical challenges in mixing student groups. The Red-Greens noted that the city will already offer subsidized driving licenses for healthcare programs from autumn 2025, but they oppose merging the educational programs.
