Overhyped Finland Education

Henry explores the history of Finland’s educational system. You may have heard that they have the best educational set up in the world. It’s more nuanced than that. Each week Henry will be deep diving into a niche aspect of a country. He will be attempting to put it into a UK context, making it easier to understand through comparison how well we do things (or, more pertinently, how badly). There will be a particular focus on Singapore over the coming weeks. And for note, Edward will be joining Henry in a couple of months when we embark on our main weekly episodes, focusing on why things are the way they are. The areas that interest us include the following, and will be weaved into every episode we do: history, psychology, philosophy, economics, politics and health. Simply put, it’s two optimistic pessimists working out the world.
