Article link: Education key to economic survival
The BBC’s Sean Coughlan asks, “how can a small, affluent country such as Finland maintain a high-wage, high-skill economy?”
The answer: heavy investment in education and life-long learning. Says the Finnish Minister of Education, “we believe that if we invest in all children for nine years and give them the same education then we will reach the best results.”
Learn more about the educational system in Finland from the Ministry of Education’s Web site.
