The map indicates variations within the Nordic countries. In Danish regions, the share of early school leavers varies between 7% and 9%. In Norway, Oslo og Akershus and Vestlandet are the only two NUTS 2 regions with rates below 10%. The Swedish regions have among the lowest shares of early school leavers in the Nordic countries. Six out of eight Swedish NUTS 2 regions (riksområden) have a share of early school leavers below 7%, while Hovedstaden in Denmark is the only other Nordic region with a similar rate. In Finland, variations between the NUTS 2 regions (suuralue/storområde) are bigger than in Sweden and Denmark and more similar to the regional variation within Norway. In Åland, the share of early school leavers is estimated to be 11% but Åland students enrolled in studies in neighbouring Sweden are not included in this figure and therefore the true figure is probably smaller. In the Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland and northern Norway, the rates are above 15%.
