Yes. Kunskapsskolan is a private enterprise and as such depends on earning a surplus in order to raise capital and invest in its commitment to the long term development of schools and educational programs. Kunskapsskolan's business philosophy is based on the conviction that education is an industry that will benefit from players with a long-term perspective, sound finances and stable conditions. It is also convinced that education, as any advanced knowledge industry, needs long-term investments in research, development and innovation.

The Kunskapsskolan model is based on personalised learning where students allocate their study time based on their previous educational experience as well as their individual strengths and areas that have not developed yet. This means that students, with the guidance of their coach, identify, set and work towards their own personal and academic goals, with the ambition of achieving high final results. Personal coaching contributes to the student's personal development with students learning to set clear, realistic, yet challenging goals for their studies. Kunskapsskolan aims for students to be able to see their own progress and personal development step by step. Students, alongside their personal coaches, can influence how they spend their time at school.

All Kunskapsskolan schools follow the curriculum of the host country and adapt to the national, state and local standards, the grading system, requirements and cultures. Staff and teachers are also local, often with extensive teaching experience both locally and internationally. All subjects in KED schools are provided and taught in a way that meets the requirements of the National curriculum and examinations in terms of content, performance, knowledge and grade requirements. At the same time, we believe that children, as all people, have a lot in common across cultural and national borders and a lot to gain from the international exchange of ideas and experiences. The schools are aiming to prepare the students for life and its challenges and the ability to thrive in a highly globalized world. We, at Kunskapsskolan, firmly believe that, it is a great advantage for an educational organization to combine local links and traditions with experiences and exchange from and with other communities and countries.

Kunskapsskolan can operate or partner with any entity that shares our vision and commitment to provide a first-class education based on the concept of personalization within the KED structure and continuous improvement.

The KED Program has been developed by practitioners in real schools. The importance of goals and feedback as the power of personalization and individual learning techniques is scientifically well proven. Most of the elements, such as the personal coaching, the emphasis on goals and assessment, the learning progression and the support of IT in education, are well known methodology that have been practiced by teachers. What makes the KED Program unique is not the different elements of the model, but rather the comprehensive way these elements come together to support the personalized learning which characterizes Kunskapsskolan.

Many previous efforts to create personalized education have been hampered by facilities designed for a different pedagogical concept or by the absence of supporting processes, resources or technology. In the KED Program, all this has been developed to support the program. Other programs for a personalised learning model have been less successful due to the fact that they have merely been used as a way of cutting down on teacher resources or have not been combined with the emphasis on assessment and accountability. The KED Program is, as it has been described by educators, what many professional teachers always tried to do and wanted to do.

All of our current schools are inclusive and open to all students. The basic idea of the KED Program is to recognize each student as a unique individual with his/her own unique ambitions, talents and conditions. That approach enables the school and its staff to identify personal needs and spend their resources where they make a difference and that has proven successful with all categories of students.
