I have a problem I am from Colombia , came to work in equinor in 2006. Married a Norwegian sailor and we have 2 kids. My daughter is 13 now and need to apply to ungdom school . My kids were raise speaking Spanish , English and Norwegian . They attend school public in Fornebu . My daughter somehow developed a very mature mindset , she reads one book per day since 11 years old , she even sign herself in Berkeley university online for gothic literature . She has challenge to speak to kids her age. She is top on her class in all subjects. Teacher recommend we send her boarding scholol or a school in oslo for a new start and to get challenges. As I am Christian I applied to KG . We did not pass because priority to siblings in the school. The directives says that there were many this year that took those spots and 150 on a lottery waitlist and they said due regulation they CAN NOT take special talents or special needs as special treatment . However they are already being discriminatory to those people who off course we won’t have relations to alumni because we are international . So as today we don’t have a spot for Marialuna There should be a rule that make this school take special gifted kids Or special need Or kids from other racial groups
You can apply you “ smart” child to a private school. And you can also rent a private tutor who teaches you child what he doesn’t learn in the free Norwegian school system .It’s a lot of possibilities. You just have to do like the rest of the population in Norway, pay for the extra education you child need . You can’t play your race card here . This is not America . It’s Norway.
