Skarnes videregående skole

What Skarnes videregående skole does

Skarnes videregående skole is a satellite campus of Sentrum videregående skole, a public upper secondary school headquartered at Rådhusplassen 7, Kongsvinger, Norway, and operated by Innlandet fylkeskommune (Innlandet County Municipality, organization number 920717152). The Skarnes location specifically hosts Vg1 students in the Bygg og anlegg (Building and Construction) vocational track, who report to the Skarnes site for the first day of school before progressing through the program. Education is delivered free of charge to Norwegian residents as part of the country's public secondary school system, with students applying through the national Vigo.no admission portal.

The broader Sentrum videregående skole portfolio spans more than eleven educational programs across academic and vocational tracks, including Bygg- og anleggsteknikk, Elektro og datateknologi, Helse- og oppvekstfag, Kunst design og arkitektur, Medier og kommunikasjon, Teknologi- og industrifag, Restaurant- og matfag, Salg service og reiseliv, Informasjonsteknologi og medieproduksjon, Frisør blomster interiør og eksponeringsdesign, and a Tilrettelagt avdeling for students requiring adapted education. The technology stack is built on Visma's InSchool as the school administrative system for records, schedules, grades, and attendance; Microsoft 365 and Teams for collaboration; Microsoft Authenticator for two-factor authentication through the centralized Innlandet-bruker identity; and the Elev-PC laptop program distributing tiered Lenovo ThinkPad models (E14 for most programs, E16 for technology/industrial tracks, P16s for creative media programs).

The institution is entirely publicly funded through Innlandet County's tax-based education budget with no commercial revenue stream. Students access a 1,398 NOK annual laptop co-payment through the Lånekassen equipment grant (utstyrsstipend), with school transportation managed via Innlandstrafikk's MinSkyss system and route planning supported by Entur. The school holds Miljøfyrtårn environmental certification and operates under GDPR-compliant data handling aligned to county-level privacy policies. Strategic technology partners include Visma (InSchool), Lenovo (elev-PC), Microsoft (M365/Teams/Authenticator), and Kongsvinger kunstforening for the annual KDA art exhibition at Aamodtgården. Examinations are delivered using Safe Exam Browser as mandated by the Norwegian Directorate for Education (Utdanningsdirektoratet), with Clarify available for exam accommodations for privatist candidates.
