Minister of Local Government As a result of the parliamentary election in the fall of 2013, Sanner was appointed to the position of Minister of Local Government and Modernisation. In April 2016, he didn't rule out that force could be used to merge counties who would not comply with the county merger. This reaction came after that Møre og Romsdal refused to be a part of the new regional reform. In July 2016, Sanner joined the opening of Molde International Jazz Festival/Moldejazz.

He expressed that "we don't want more attention around the place itself. There will be no art competition regarding the memorial, but we do put weight on the formulation of the place". The proposal was met with backlash from neighbours near the Utøya quay, who didn't rule out a lawsuit against it. Towards the end of his term as local government minister, Sanner oversaw the merger of North and South Trøndelag, which came into effect on 1 January 2018. Minister of Education After the Liberals joined the Solberg cabinet in January 2018, Sanner was appointed minister of education and research.

Despite criticism for the proposals, Sanner emphasised that both principles and teachers had long complained that there were to many subjects and that important subjects were not given enough depth. He further announced minor changes to exams and evaluations for subjects, so that they would be more closely linked to new ones. In September 2019, Sanner responded to a Si;D post made in Aftenposten by a 16-year-old asking when political absence would be allowed in lower secondary school. Sanner's response was that "it is not something me or the government has planned to introduce". He did however emphasise that he understands that many youths would participate in political causes, but that students should be at school as much as possible. He further added that these interests or activities should be done outside of school hours. In November 2019, Sanner made a last minute proposal to the new curriculums, in which schools now achieving more in depth lessons in regards to homosexuality and gender pronounces. Sanner expressed that "of course it should be included. Students should have the right knowledge about the different sexual orientations. We are going to lay the groundwork to fight against prejudice and discrimination, and promote transparancy".

The day after, Sanner released a written statement in the Storting, in response to Labour Party deputy leader Hadia Tajik: "In the aftermath of this appointment process, I think it is natural to look at whether there are learning points. Furthermore, I will take the initiative to look at whether the formal framework for the Ministry of Finance's role in Norges Bank's appointment of the general manager of the management of the GPFG is appropriate". The case reached a close on 24 August, after Tangen announced he would sell himself out of AKO Capital and transfer his shares to AKO Foundation.
