High-Quality Teaching

High-quality teaching involves having well-trained, competent educators who are committed to student learning and professional development. Investment in teacher training is crucial for enhancing instructional effectiveness, facilitating student engagement, and supporting merit-based advancement through effective instruction.

Finland requires teachers to hold master’s degrees and provides continuous professional development opportunities. This commitment to teaching excellence ensures that educators are equipped to deliver high-quality instruction, enabling students to achieve academic success and demonstrate their merit.

Another shared factor is the high expectations set for all students, influencing educational outcomes and supporting a culture of meritocracy.
