Amends proposal on free school cuts next year – news Rogaland – Local news, TV and radio

The government is amending the proposal to cut support for independent schools in 2024. This is confirmed by Minister of Education Kari Nessa Nordtun (Ap) to VG. – Many parents and students are worried about their school, they don’t need to be, she says to the newspaper. The government says they will still remove the double subsidy that independent schools with both primary and secondary levels have received. But they will also increase the subsidy in other areas for those schools. Significant changes are also being made to the proposed cut in the state budget for 2024. – The work will lead to adjustments to the subsidy to private schools, so that the total decrease in subsidy will be less than the original estimate of NOK 515 million, Nordtun further tells the newspaper.
