Bakgrund och problemdiskussion: Bolagsstyrningsfrågor har tilldragit sig alltmeruppmärksamhet i samband med både nationella och internationella företagsskandaler. Dettahar bland annat resulterat i den amerikanska lagen, Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX), där den störstaförändringen från tidigare lagstiftning är de ökade kraven på rapportering avseende deninterna kontrollen. Svenskt Näringsliv har tillsammans med flera statliga organisationerutvecklat en egen variant, Koden. Det svenska regelverket ställer bland annat krav på att enrapport avseende den interna kontrollen skall författas årligen av alla de bolag som ärnoterade på Stockholmsbörsen med en omsättning som överstiger 3 Mdr kr. De flesta bolagenfår idag hjälp av sina revisorer med att upprätta rapporten som skall ingå som en del avföretagets Bolagsstyrningsrapport.Syfte: Uppsatsens primära syfte har utformats till att beskriva innehållet i Bolagsstyrningsrapporternaavseende den interna kontrollen.

AbstractThe purpose with my study was to find out how students with physical difficulties are treated in school by teachers and other students and also if there are any differences between how teachers and students treat students with physical difficulties. I also wanted to see if there were any prejudices against students with physical disabilities from either students or teachers. If there are any prejudices, I wanted to know what kind it is that exists. When I went to school, I remember that I looked down on the students with physical difficulties because they were different. When I have been working in school as a teacher, I have seen students who pull away from students with difficulties.I chose to do the study at a higher grade school, because I have not been in such a high grade in school during my practice.

Truancy is a problem in the Swedish schools today, just as well as in other European and other developed countries where educataion is gratuitous.
