Students answer an assignment booklet, which contains assignments in both mathematics and nature / technology. The booklet contains three different types of assignments.
* Multiple choice.
* Assignments where the student must give a short answer.
* Assignments where the student has to formulate an extended answer, where they explain how they have arrived at the solution.
Students spend two hours answering the academic assignments and one hour answering a questionnaire about, for example, conditions at home and about their work with the subjects.
In addition, the teachers answer a questionnaire about, among other things, their teaching background.
The school head answers a questionnaire about general conditions at the school as well as about attitudes to and assessment of daily life at the school.
