Curriculum details	Curriculum details Primary Education for grades 1–6 follows the Swedish curriculum, Lgr 22. Since 2012, the school has Öffentlichkeitsrecht from the Austrian School Board, enabling legally recognized Schulzeugnisse and smooth transitions to Austrian or international schools. Education takes place in small groups with a high teacher-to-student ratio; all teachers are fully qualified and participate in ongoing professional development. The program blends Swedish curriculum standards with Austrian educational standards to provide a versatile foundation for future learning. Language learning is a priority: grades 2–6 receive four German lessons per week, grade 1 two; lessons are taught by native-speaking teachers in Swedish, German, and English, with cultural activities and collaboration with an Austrian partner school to support integration. Digitalisation is developed with iPads and Chromebooks in every class and projectors in the classrooms. In Kindergarten, Lönneberga is bilingual with Swedish and German spoken equally.
