Liberal Party leader Jan Björklund fight tooth and nail to introduce ratings from the fourth grade. This is despite massive criticism emerged recently. Now, a study Schibsted / Inizio made on behalf of Svenska Dagbladet that resistance among the Swedish people are great when it comes to early grades.

Nearly six of ten, 57 percent, of the 2051 respondents in opinion panel considers it a bad idea to introduce so early grades. More than a third, 34 percent, believe that it is a good idea. The support is clearly stronger among alliance parties where a majority, 57 percent, is while a full 84 percent of the red-green supporters are against.

– Most respondents think it is a bad proposal, the proportion is much higher among those who sympathize with the government. If we look at the Alliance on the contrary, a slight majority think it is a good suggestion, says Karin Nelsson, public opinion analyst at Inizio.

She points out that even if the aid is stronger in alliance voters so far from all sure it is a good idea. One-third think that the proposal is bad.

The criticism has been extensive recent times. Among others, the Ombudsman for Children, Schools Inspectorate, National Agency, the two teachers’ unions and the Royal Swedish Science Council has given the thumbs down. But Jan Björklund (Liberal), together with allied parties and the Sweden Democrats had a secure majority in favor of the proposal.

Until now.

Sweden Democrats is now being re-evaluate its position on the issue.

The party has gone through the available research and will now make contact with the respondents that are negative to the proposal.

– We want to meet critical instances, and listen to what their concern lies in. Anyone who wants to influence vågmästarpartiet in the question now have the opportunity. We can conclude that we maintain announcement or awaiting. We have not put our foot down yet, says Stefan Jakobsson, school policy spokesperson for the Sweden Democrats, told SvD.

According to Stefan Jakobsson , the party has not changed because of the massive criticism that has come presented in the media. The introduction is in the party program. Instead, it is about finance. The ten million that are allocated in the alliance budget is not enough, says Stefan Jakobsson.

– We can not see it in the budget are allocated funds to establish grades from year four, then we need to move resources there from high school because the idea is to try to detect students who need support before, he says.

SD, according to Stefan Jakobsson arrive at delaying a decision or that the party does not want to introduce earlier grades.

– All possibilities are open in the current situation, he said.

Liberal Party School political spokesperson Christer Nylander writes in a text SvD that he is aware that some probably think that the pace of reform been high. “Because you we are sure that there is time and resources to prepare the next step,” he writes.
