What Ulstein Vidaregåande Skule does

Ulstein Vidaregåande Skule (Ulstein VGS) is a public upper secondary school located in Ulsteinvik, Norway, operating under Møre og Romsdal fylkeskommune (Møre og Romsdal County Municipality). The school is a 'kombinert skule' (combined school) offering six program areas spanning both vocational and academic tracks: Elektro og datateknologi (Electrical and Data Technology), Idrettsfag (Sports), Informasjonsteknologi og medieproduksjon (IT and Media Production), Studiespesialisering (General Studies), Sal, service og reiseliv (Sales, Service and Travel), and Påbygging til generell studiekompetanse (Supplementary to General University Admissions). It serves students aged 16–19 in the Ulstein region, with admissions processed centrally through the national Vigo portal.

The school's technology stack is built around standard Norwegian public-sector administrative platforms. Visma InSchool is used for student administration, grading, and school communication, while Vitnemålsportalen handles official transcript issuance and Vilbli provides curriculum information. The Skule-PC Ordning (School PC program) distributes laptops to students, financed through Lånekassen equipment stipends at a minimum of 1,427 NOK per year, with higher stipends for vocational and sports students. School transport is managed through the FRAM system, and the school integrates with the national Skoleskyssportalen. There are no proprietary technology products, AI capabilities, or commercial software offerings.

As a government_state_entity, the school generates no commercial revenue. Education is free for students, and funding flows from Møre og Romsdal fylkeskommune's county budget. Leadership is provided by Rector Margaret Alme, who also serves as the school's responsible editor. The institution has 15 staff recorded in the dataset, operates 190 school days annually, and supports approximately six program areas with additional wraparound services including career guidance, adapted education (Tilpassa opplæring), minority language applicant pathways, and mental health support through a partnership with Vestre Viken's VIP program. The entity is not an investable commercial enterprise and exists to deliver statutory public education.
