David Truss provides an excellent synopsis of Finland's educational system from this video, "Key Drivers of Educational Performance in Finland" presented by Pasi Sahlberg in April 2010.
Do not miss this video of Sahlberg's presentation as he reflects on why Finland has created the highest-ranking system in the world. At the end of this presentation, Sahlberg notes the future goals that Finland has for education; the top one being "Better Individual Learning Path".
In his concluding remarks he articulates the importance of creativity:
"This creativity aspect is very important because in Finland we believe that risk-taking, creativity and innovation are very, very important for a society like ours. And particularly working in this global and globalized world it is more important than what you actually know and remember, it is more what you are and what you are capable of doing.”"
