This 1998 curriculum for Swedish pre-school, the first, makes pre-school the first step in the educational system for children and young persons. The curriculum is based on the overall goals and guidelines for pre-school and provides a foundation for assessing quality requirements when determining whether an individual pre-school fulfils the stipulated requirements. The curriculum is also applicable to family day-care units. The curriculum is divided into a section on the fundamental values and tasks of the pre-school and one on goals and guidelines.

The fundamental goals of the national school system are set out in the School Act (1985:1100). The municipalities take responsibility for implementation of the curriculum. Translated into English by Brian R. Turner.
