 Sweden Bans Home-schooling, Religious Instruction


The Kingdom of Sweden took a dramatic turn toward totalitarianism with the adoption of a sweeping new education “reform” package that essentially prohibits home schooling and forces all schools to teach the same government curriculum.

The draconian 1,500-page law — deceptively referred to by the Swedish government as “The new Education Act - for knowledge, choice and security” — was approved by Parliament last week amidst strong criticism and opposition. When it goes into effect next year, the entire educational system will be transformed, and alternative education abolished.

So-called “independent schools,” already financed and largely controlled by government, will now have to submit to the same regulatory framework as regular government schools. They will also be required to follow state-issued syllabi and curricula. ...

Isn't homeschooling already illegal in a lot of countries?

 Re:

The kings of this world conspire against the Lord and His Anointed. But, the Lord laughs at them, and will bring them to swift destruction, as he has all tyrants and wicked men throughout history.

May out Lord be with the faithful in Sweden, and grant them opportunity to persevere in continuing to homeschool their children or flee the country.
