overgangstrinnet
Overgangstrinnet is a concept within the Norwegian compulsory education system that describes a transitional phase between primary school and secondary school. The exact grade span and how it is organized can vary between municipalities and schools, but the intention is to create a smoother and more coordinated move from primary to lower secondary education and, in some cases, to the beginning of upper secondary schooling.
The purpose of overgangstrinnet is to ensure continuity in learning and development for students as they move
Typical features of overgangstrinnet include joint planning and coordination across school levels, shared assessment and information
The concept is supported by national guidelines and educational policy that encourage early intervention, cross-school cooperation,
