- This chapter explains an activity that can be classed as a technology of appearance in Sweden – namely different kinds of certification. It demonstrates that the activity of certification has been established as a way for schools to become visible in a competitive field of free school choice. The chapter describes the process of LGBTQ certification and examines how it is used in the larger Swedish educational discourse. Acquiring LGBTQ certification is a one-year process that is divided into different steps and has two parallel parts: education in LGBTQ issues and anti-oppressive education and change management. The purpose of certification often seems to be to visualise the school as modern and keeping up with what is perceived as the most important social areas of development. The process of obtaining certification is followed by means of data obtained from websites, social media accounts and interviews with school actors published in local and national newspapers.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter describes the Swedish context, the theoretical framework and the methodology. It analyses the Swedish national curriculum and common performance indicators are described and explains regarding the discourses they represent and how they represent the national curriculum. The chapter explores knowledge about how such indicators can influence teaching and school choice, and how they interact with the national curriculum by describing and analysing the common performance indicators that are used in the Swedish school system. The evaluation systems also involve indicators representing background information, such as costs and number of pupils and teachers. Skolverkets Internetbaserade Resultat-och kvalitets Informations System is a database of statistics and general information on the Swedish National Agency of Education website. ValjaSkola is a relatively new website and is provided by the Swedish National Agency for Education. The reductive simplification of the national curriculum is exaggerated by the complete dominance of indicators representing only three school subjects: Swedish, English and mathematics.
