Description Utbyskolan is a grades 1–9 resource school with 33 students that exclusively accepts students requiring extensive and ongoing specialized support. Students at the resource school follow the same curriculum and schedule as other students in primary school. We are committed to ensuring that all students belong to everyone, and we actively work to create a sense of safety and a desire to learn for all. At our resource school, we work with smaller student groups and more staff, providing greater opportunities for individual adaptations in teaching and learning environments. We create inclusive instruction and a customized school environment for the students who need it most. Since Utbyskolan does not have a sports hall, students travel in our leased vehicles to nearby facilities with our physical education teachers and after-school program leaders. Utbyskolan is located close to nature in Utby. "The Forest in School" is part of our pedagogy, where students receive outdoor instruction connected to freedom to roam principles, nature, environment, and practical learning. At Utbyskolan, we work with students' language development throughout the day and in all learning environments. We want to contribute to a democratic community where all students are included—an environment where students have great opportunities to develop and learn, and where differences are seen as an asset.
