Finlands education system is fantastic. That's what most people say and it might be true. From a students point of view, the two reasons why Finland keeps getting top scores in international tests, even though our students are spending the least amount of time in school, are
1. our educated teachers
and
2. the modest amount of work required from our students
It's that simple. Now that I'm accustomed to this "lazy" life, doing any more work would be out of the question, although I do acknowledge the fact that compared to the amount of work students in other countries have to do, we Finnish students are pretty lucky. In my opinion, children need get alot of free time in order to grow up to be stable, intelligent adults. According to a short video by the BBC, the reasons to our success are trust, in students and the school faculty, a positive and a not too overwhelming working environment, generous support to kids with learning difficulties and highly educated teachers.
