| Shrnutí: | More and more schools are under threat of closure due to strained municipal finances and differing opinions on what constitutes quality in education. This book presents an overview of changes in the school structure in Norway, with a particular focus on educational provision in rural areas.
It highlights how curricula and school governance affect the school structure, and presents research on key issues that arise when school closures are being considered. These include economic concerns, students’ academic and social development, health and school transport, school operations under threat of closure, and the role of the school in local communities and settlement patterns. By drawing on concrete evaluations of school structures in selected municipalities, the reader gains an authentic insight into the dilemmas and difficult trade-offs faced by local communities. The book also illustrates how the current national curriculum (LK20) opens opportunities to take advantage of the strengths of small schools, while also revealing systemic factors that can prevent this potential from being realized.
Together, the book offers a comprehensive perspective on small schools in pressured municipalities. The topic is highly relevant today across large parts of the country, as even larger schools in bigger municipalities and counties are increasingly facing the threat of closure. Issues such as travel distance and the school’s role in the local community affect everyone.
The book is intended for anyone interested in children’s schooling and living conditions, including teachers, students, politicians, and parents. |
