Kommunen har varit skyldig sedan utbildningsreformen 1992 att bidra till finansieringen av friskolorna. Sedan dess har antalet friskolor ökat markant i Sverige. Kommunen sitter på två stolar när det gäller styrningen av gymnasieskolan. Dels utövare när det gäller den egna kommunala skolan, dels som finansiär när det gäller den fristående gymnasieskolan.

The study is based on qualitative interviews with four active educators. The results of the study show that the teachers regarded the children's interests to a great extent when the different play environments were structured.
