The
World’s Most
Competent Teachers
Finland has competent teachers. Teacher education is of high
quality and attractive.
However, future challenges and rapid changes in the society
have presented the competent teachers and the teacher
education with new challenges.
The Teacher Education Development Programme
responds to these challenges
The programme outlines the objectives and measures that
ensure that Finnish teacher education will remain strong,
attractive and internationally appreciated.
Valuing the teacher education and teachers as well as a teacher
identity that creates new outcomes are important for the future of
Finland.
