About government support of Sami languages in general in Sweden: "In the new constitution for Sweden (SOU 2008: 125 act 2), the Sámi are mentioned separately for the first time as an ethnic and linguistic minority, but not as an indigenous people.

Sámi varieties are used as languages of instruction in some special Sámi schools in Sweden (grades one to six) "
