The Finnish education system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Education is one of the cornerstones of the Finnish welfare society. Finland offers equal opportunities for education for all. Education from pre-primary to higher education is free of charge. The new curricula for pre-primary<\/a> and basic education focus on learning, not steering. Teachers in Finland are highly educated and strongly committed to their work.
You can choose either the Swedish or the Finnish path for the education. If you start daycare, early childhood education, in Swedish you usually continue the education path in Swedish through basic education. A vast majority even continue the Swedish path at higher education as well. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
