&gt; The vibe I&#x27;m getting from Sweden (I lived there for a while, learned the language and still follow the news), is that it&#x27;s moving to a more and more class-segregated country. Sure, everybody can look for the best school for their children, but only parents from higher socioeconomic classes will do that.<p>Hear, hear.<p>The school system decline is also a political &quot;hot potato&quot; because of the connection to increasing immigration.  Since free immigration is considered a holy sacrament by many Swedes, it is a political no-no to connect school problems to immigration (just wait and see if I get any comments to this statement on here)<p>For the ten worst performing schools in Sweden, where students have the lowest grades in 2015, these are the stats:<p>Rågsveds skola, Stockholm (90 percent immigrants)
Ryaskolan, Göteborg (93 percent immigrants)
Vättleskolan, Göteborg (84 percent immigrants)
Västra Engelbrektsskolan, Örebro (82 percent immigrants)
Hjällboskolan, Göteborg (99 percent immigrants)
Kronan, Trollhättan (98 percent immigrants)
Sandeklevsskolan, Göteborg (98 percent immigrants)
Apelgårdsskolan, Malmö (99 percent immigrants)
Nivrenaskolan, Sundsvall (22 percent immigrants)
Rinkebyskolan, Stockholm (98 percent immigrants)<p>It would appear that the Swedish school system is not able to properly educate immigrants.<p>And as you say, Sweden is &quot;moving to a more and more class-segregated country.&quot;  It very clear from the above list.<p>The 32-year old minister of education, Mr Fridolin, recently went on record saying the government will NOT implement further restrictions on immigration.  He also said he would fix the school system in 100 days.<p>Source of statistics: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.svt.se&#x2F;nyheter&#x2F;regionalt&#x2F;vast&#x2F;skolsituationen-akut-i-kommunerna" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.svt.se&#x2F;nyheter&#x2F;regionalt&#x2F;vast&#x2F;skolsituationen-aku...</a><p>Asbestos suit ready.
