Because they listen to experts. They also hired American researchers to teach their politicians on how to recognize fake news. Because Russia tried to meddle with European elections. Then they taught students how to recognize fake news for themselves. Trusting the kids. #6'Elon

Because teachers are there to guide/facilitate. The students actually conduct the lessons and even prepare the tests and quizzes. They also evaluate themselves.

Thank you! Please educate our citizens, Country & Education Department WHY FINLAND’S education system is so successful - because of Student-Focused education and giving them more time to be young; socializing with their friends & family!

All the other factors weigh in as well. Even their cops are better educated, along with so many nuanced refinements of a wiser society.

Their school days are longer & they pay their teachers extremely well. Teachers are respected & schools are well maintained & equipped. Because far fewer children live in poverty the kids are ready to learn. Respect for teachers exist as they are the best & brightest. Not here.

Both your statements are actually incorrect. They do have homework Finland has dropped at education level as measured by #pisa. It's now between Turkey and Chile. This drop happened as they started to use digitalization on all materials except physical education (sports)

They go to school all day like a full time job. Homework extends the kids workday. You know what they say about all work and no play...

Again, propaganda. 👎Homework is enjoyed by millions. America is not Finland.
