This table contains figures on schools and educational institutions by type of education, ideological basis and school size. It concerns schools and educational institutions financed by the government. Figures for the adult education are left out of this table, because the number of institutions is not available. Data available from: School-/academic year 1990/91 Status of the figures: The figures up to and including school-/academic year 2024/25 are final and the figures of school-/academic year 2025/26 are provisional. Changes on 21 May 2026: The final figures of school-/academic year 2024/25 and the provisional figures of school-/academic year 2025/26 have been added. Change as of school year 2025/26: Due to changes in legislation, schools and educational institutions are no longer required to register their ideological basis starting from school year 2025/26. Schools and educational institutions that opt for this will be categorized as ‘other special’ from this school year onwards. When will new figures be published? In the second quarter of 2027 the provisional figures of school-/academic year 2025/26 will be replaced by final figures and the provisional figures of school-/academic year 2026/27 will be added in this publication.
