Languages of instruction Sami, Finnish
Teaching material The availability of teaching material for the Sami language is bad, the quality of the available material is considered 'reasonable'.
Remarks The main problems at the moment are a lack of qualified teachers, a lack of sufficient learning materials in the Sami-language, and the dominant position of Finnish in the homes and daily life. One possible solution for these problems would be a more active attitude in the homes towards the minority language, according to the school.
