Swedish schools are in freefall

An interesting opinion piece that made it into the Jewish media in Sweden:

Today, the world has unfortunately opened up to Swedish schoolchildren in a more brutal way.

That sounds ominous, although google translate might be the culprit.

In the middle and thousands of other classrooms in Sweden, we have received newly arrived children and young people. Children and young people who cannot read, write or count.

Don't worry, they are future rocket scientists.

There are some newly arrived young people who are struggling and investing everything in order to learn and move on with the education and maybe become doctors, lawyers or programmers.

You forgot 'rocket scientists'.

Then there is the large mass of new arrivals. Those who ignore the school, those who ignore the teaching, who are unpleasant and rude. Some even threatening. From feeling joy when I go to my work I now go with stomach ache. 

I know I will be called "fucking whore", "fucking pussy" and I know I will hear "you don't decide on me". There will be mess and noise in classrooms, corridors, school yards and the dining room. The changing rooms where the class will change to the sports lesson will, as usual, mean that the girls do not dare to change because the guys will show up and sneak film / photograph the girls. 

So teachers are called 'whores', and girls can't go to the showers anymore. How progressive!

When I call the parents on calls, I am told that I do not have the right to say to their children, that I should take care not to report to the headmaster and the school inspector. You know where I and my family live, you know what car I drive and I know that there is a great risk that my car will be repaired or destroyed in some other way. I know that some students threaten other students but I dare not go in because then I run the risk of being beaten. 

This sounds like a prison, not a school. Teachers have to fear for their lives.

Now in the spring, the national tests have started, I have sadly sat and corrected my classes' tests and see the results collapse. 

Sweden's test scores are indeed plummeting. And remember, this country does not allow home schooling.

If, as a teacher, I believe that a student has not been active in the lessons and has shown his or her knowledge, but should receive the grade F, then I know that parents will nag and threaten me. But the principal will also ensure that the student receives E, or preferably A. 

So Sweden is grade fixing to make its hordes of illiterate, low IQ third worlders look competent. Rather, the principals are fixing grades to make their schools look less horrible.

For most newly arrived parents there is only A for their children. Even suggesting that their children would have something else generates reports and harassment. 

The invaders all get an A.

In the worst case, you can be referred to make a work environment report and in the case of threats and harassment between students, you should make an incident report. These incident reports may not contain anything purportedly "racist". For example, you may write "student A called me" whore and pussy "- but not that he did it in Arabic.  Then it appears that it is a newcomer who said this.
