Finland is a country where people believe in education. Even today there is a broad national consensus that Finland’s well being is and will be based on knowledge and expertise. The current Government has set an ambitious vision for 2025: Finland will be a country where everybody wants to learn more all the time.
Finland has a proven track-record as the home of world-class education. The Finnish school system has been built on the egalitarian principle of good quality universal education, which is inclusive and comprehensive. In fact, the learning gap of the weakest and the strongest pupils in Finnish schools is one of the narrowest in the world.
