Finnish Education Perspectives Podcast is back!

Our next guest is Michael Lawrence. He’s an Australian school teacher with more than 30 years of experience.

When he visited Finland to take a look at their world-leading education system, he came away in a state of shock.

He couldn’t believe that a country with such high PISA outcomes had minimal standardized testing 📭

In today’s interesting discussion, Melissa and Michael discuss testing in schools and how Finland and Australia compare.
