The number of students in upper secondary school in Sweden decreased from the academic year 2014/15 to 2015/16. Since then, however, the number of students increased, reaching 367,000 students by 2023/24. The increase was partly caused by the high number of young immigrants coming to Sweden in 2015. Upper secondary school (gymnasieskola in Swedish) is a voluntary upper secondary education for children between16 and 19 years of age.
