Questionnaire on special education and religion and worldview studies in basic education

The survey will collect data on part-time special education in primary and lower secondary
education for the academic year 2024-2025 and on religion and worldview studies taught in primary and lower secondary education (including preparatory instruction and lower secondary education for adults) on 20 September 2025, as well as one-off data on enhanced individual pupil guidance and on teaching staff. No data will be collected in 2025 on pupils receiving intensive and special support in primary and lower secondary education. The online
questionnaire will be open from 1 November to 31 December.

The data needed for calculating central government transfers to local government are
