world. It’s all thanks to one of the best school system. For example, all children in the first grade study 20
hours a week. Of course, the number of hours increases(інкрісис) every year. But it is still less than in other
countries in Europe or the world. In Finland, both teachers and children have many choices.
Each teacher decides how to teach the curriculum(керік’юлем) and how many technologies can be in their
classrooms. As for children, they can work in their own cafe(кефей) at school. School lunches, books,
excursions are free. There are many sports that they can do. For example, on the street they can play
football, basketball, hockey(хокі), and when the weather is bad, at school they can play ping pong,
billiards(біл’ярдс), or just relax in a special room with soft pillows and play in play station. It's all free and
parents don't have to pay for it. All money comes from taxes(тексис).
Teachers also take regular tests at these schools. But marks are not published or shared. Also, all teachers
must be competent and have a master's(месторс) degree.
So in the end, I would like to say that many schools in the world and in Ukraine need to follow these tips
and change their school system for the better.
