The purpose of this study is to investigate how different teams tell about their work in prevention and promotion in different municipalities, with pupils at risk of falling into problem-free school absence, with a particular focus on pupils with special talent. Five qualitative focus group interviews have been conducted in four different municipalities of varying sizes. It has been shown that the level of knowledge in terms of responding to pupils who need extra stimulation and the ability to adapt the learning environment adequately has varied between the municipalities. Some of the municipalities could see a connection between the pupil group, especially talented pupils and pupils with problematic school absence and in one of the municipalities there was also a connection to socio-emotional problems among these. Data has been analyzed from a salutogenic perspective, where adaptation of the learning environment and the student's perception of belonging to a context, appear as success factors. To be able to work on promotion and prevention as a special educator, one should have knowledge about all pupils and this study shows examples of how this can be done.
