Sweden launches inquiry into Swedish language teaching amid integration concerns

The Swedish government has appointed an inquiry to improve Swedish language teaching, prompted by data showing half of students in Swedish-as-a-second-language programs were born in Sweden. Minister Simona Mohamsson (L) frames the issue as 'racism based on low expectations,' signaling a policy shift toward higher standards and integration. The inquiry's scope and timeline are unclear, but it may affect education policy and integration debates.
