The Finnish education system’s emphasis on children’s happiness, well-being, equality, creativity, and life skills came into focus during a visit by representatives of the Finnish organisation ‘Finnish Global Education Solutions’ to Paramita Heritage School in Padmanagar in Karimnagar on Tuesday.

Organisation’s Head of Professional Development Laura Maria and the organisation’s India representative Rashmi interacted with the school management, teachers, and students and shared insights into Finland’s globally recognised education model, according to a press release.

They said the Finland’s system follows a unique path that emphasises student happiness, mental well-being, equal opportunities, life skills, the ability to learn independently and the holistic development of children.

Paramita Educational Institutions chairman E. Prasad Rao and directors interacted with the visiting representatives.
