During the last couple of years there has been an intensification of the discussion concerning integration in Sweden and how it should be managed. The subject is being discussed in the society and in political institutions. The purpose of this study is to examine how pupils in secondary schools are experiencing the three phenomenon; political participation, the attitude towards integration and the feeling of belonging in the society after the redistribution of pupils in 2017 when Vivalla secondary school was discontinued. The focal points of the study are three groups; pupils that have attended to the distributed school in the 6th and 7th grade, pupils that have attended the school of Vivalla in the 6th grade and have been redistributed to another school in the 7th grade, pupils in the secondary school of Vivalla that have done the survey-study "Du och samhället" in the year 2010. Surveys are used as a method to collect the attitudes and experiences of these groups which we can then examine and compare to see if there are any differences among the groups. The study is done with a quantitative and comparative method, firstly to compile the survey-results in SPSS and secondly to compare the results within the three groups of analysis. One of the conclusions of this study is that the perceived feeling of political participation among the pupils varies between the analysed groups. The redistributed pupils and pupils from Vivalla secondary school 2010 had the biggest difference in perceived feeling, where distributed pupils were the most positive towards political participation. The attitude towards integration had a rather big difference between the groups. Once again the distributed pupils had the most positive attitude towards integration and the pupils who had been in the distributed school in 6th and 7th grade had a slightly less positive attitude. The pupils from Vivalla 2010 had the least positive attitude within the groups. As for the feeling of belonging in the society there’s hardly a difference among the analysed groups. The pupils from Vivalla 2010 had the least positive feeling while the distributed pupils had a slightly more positive feeling. The pupils who had been in the distributed school in 6th and 7th grade had the most positive feeling. In conclusion we can say that the redistribution of pupils from Vivalla secondary school to other secondary schools in Örebro kommun shows an early positive effect.
