Sweden invests €27m in school security after shooting

Sweden's government has said it would be dedicating 300 million kronor for school security measures following the country's worst mass shooting at an education centre last month.

300 million in government grants to strengthen school safety, announced Minister of Education Johan Pehrsson at a press conference this morning.

The government has already proposed a series of stricter measures aimed at strengthening security in and around Swedish schools. Now the Tidö parties are presenting further proposals - which will, among other things, give schools the legal opportunity to search bags to look for weapons. In addition, new millions will be added so that schools can, for example, install locking systems and cameras.
