Student numbers

The autumn statistics day, 20.9 September, is used to report the number of pupils in basic education. After the statistics day, the number of pupils and students and other performance figures are reported for the calculation of the following year's government transfer funding.

The education and culture funding system is part of the state transfer system for municipalities, joint municipal authorities and private education providers. The Ministry of Education and Culture acts as the state aid authority. The National Board of Education is responsible for data collection, information services and customer advice for the state transfer system.

Preschool education is part of early childhood education. The number of students in schools includes children from other localities and children in preparatory education who study in Hollola schools. Preparatory education for basic education is intended for all children and young people of preschool and basic education age with an immigrant background who do not yet have the necessary linguistic skills to study in preschool or basic education.
