Sverigedemokraterna, led by Jimmie Åkesson, is shifting its focus to education policy.
Åkesson argues that enhancing the school system is key to maintaining voter trust.
He proposes that students who lack sufficient Swedish language skills should repeat a year.
Additionally, he calls for a ban on Islamic garments in schools, claiming they represent oppressive values.
This move is part of a broader effort by the party to expand its policy range beyond immigration and law enforcement.
