BOOK REVIEW: FINNISH LESSONS: WHAT CAN THE WORLD LEARN FROM EDUCATIONAL CHANGE IN FINLAND? THE SERIES ON SCHOOL REFORM

Abstract

Finnish Lessons is a comprehensive book about how Finland built a world-class education system during the past three decades. The author explains how education policies in Finland differ from those in other industrialized countries. Rather than relying on competition, school choice, and external testing of students, education reforms in Finland focus on professionalizing teachers' work, developing instructional leadership in schools, and enhancing trust in teachers and schools. The book details the complexity of educational change and encourages educators and policy makers to develop effective solutions for their own districts and schools.
