I've been in Japan for over 3 months now, and I have started to notice how proud I am that I'm from Finland. I miss studying in Finland, though I totally love being in Japan. But this feeling... so Finnish..!

Finally somebody that gets it, here in Costa Rica education is not even close to this, I think this must be the best education in the world, the whole system is made to provide the best education to ALL students and not to provide money and privileges to teachers. I think the trick is how you form your teachers and the culture around that, most of the people in education are there for what they can get out of flawed systems.

Nice to see this documentary. Unfortunately from where I'm from (India 🇮🇳) - education is a business. Private schools, private tuitions, private coaching are the norm. - class sizes are high: ~45 in high schools, ~100-500 in coaching classes, and ~100 in colleges - teachers are mostly mediocre. People get into this field when there are no options left. - curriculum is outdated. - competition and stress is extremely high and toxic.

I graduated highschool in 2009. Went to a university and got a degree in chemistry. The first thing I see different is the type of students. Here they look interested in learning. Where I went to school, which at the time was ranked one of the top 100 public schools in the country, we didn't have many students who behaved in this manner. About half the time kids misbehaved, talked back to the teachers and disrupted class. Those who were in the "Magnet Honors program" actually cared about learning and wanted to go to college. Everyone else except for a few who weren't in these magnet honors program didn't seem to give a damn. You can increase the salary of teachers but unless we start talking about the behavior of students and their lack of motivation for school, it won't have a different outcome at all. Anyone who does not see that our culture is having a bad effect on our students is clearly blind.

@Mrok Wages are the same in northern parts of Finland and it's cheaper to live up north, so I think that that is one of the main reasons. Also if you've been living your whole life in certain place I think that you want to continue living there. Greetings from the capital of Finland, Helsinki!

I think Europe and the world need to re evaluate the teaching methodology for young students. A young student will either enjoy or not enjoy learning at a very young stage. It is up to the teachers to teach the subject and make it fun / interesting for the young students. Interesting video 😉 Greetings from Germany...🍺🖐🇩🇪

In my school, at least with mathematics, there were different teachers especially for students with troubles. From each class a few kids who had trouble learning went to the special teachers room where the teacher could really make sure we were given all the help we needed. The rest of the students stayed in the other classroom. Extra time in school was only spent a week or two before our maths tests, 2 x 2hr lessons, 1 x 2hr lesson per week.

How do Finns keep the education so equal all over the country? I mean those best teachers should always be willing to work in the capital city, since it is more transport convenient and prosperous. How do they persuade the same good quality teachers to work in the far north area like Lapland?

Finland has 5 million inhabitants, less than New York, the U.S. has 308 mi. Easy easy to compare. PS: Remember also that Finland, despite the tax burden and the example of other Nordic countries, has a highly dynamic with strong support for the free market, home to companies such as Nokia. The company where I work, for example, is a Swedish-Swiss origin and its principles Ethics and Free Markets. Thing from another world countries that curdled the Leftists, like Brazil, are unaware.

It`s obvious. They need a masters graduate because Finland wants to make sure that they have the best qualified for their children and then that no stone has been left unturned in bringing in only the best into their school for this difficult profession.....and it works.

I would like to mention something...Finland is not such a homogeneous country anymore. Statistics 2010: recent immigrants, mostly from poorer countries, speak more than 60 languages. In some urban schools, half of the students are from immigrant families whose native tongue is not Finnish. And yet, variance between schools that can be explained away by schools' and students' economical, social, and cultural status is only 1%. To put this into perspective, variance [...] in the U.S. is 19%.

No words :'( I'm a victim of a failed educational system that don't have time for kids. Today i'm a sad human trying to find a meaning in this chaos of poverty and misery. None cares about the person and his feeling, in the end they become criminals as they see criminals becoming politicians. Seeing all these sad faces everyday it makes me also sad. They say you are lucky that you where born, i say i wish i was never born.

Well I see very different laudable and claimed to be effective education system throughout the world but still I don't understand one thing. Why is USA at the top when it comes to innovation and "original research". You can do so many things but still fail in one area, nurturing innovativeness. Asian countries fail miserably in this regard. And if you want something heavy on math you still have to look into Russian, German or French literature.
