query: What is the purpose of Sámi schools in Sweden?
answer: Sámi schools in Sweden run parallel to the standard primary school system, offering education in both Swedish and Sámi.  Their purpose is to provide education to children whose parents identify as Sámi, incorporating Sámi language and culture into the curriculum.  Historically, these schools aimed to educate Sámi children in Christianity and basic literacy, while later versions focused on a more comprehensive education.
