Yleiskuvassatilan

Yleiskuvassatilan, also known as the Finnish General Education Curriculum, is the national curriculum for basic education in Finland. It outlines the educational goals, content, and methods for teaching in Finnish schools. The curriculum is designed to promote critical thinking, creativity, and a strong foundation in core subjects such as mathematics, language, and science. It also emphasizes the development of social skills, civic responsibility, and an understanding of cultural diversity.

The Yleiskuvassatilan is structured into three main phases: basic education, upper secondary education, and vocational education. Basic education, which includes grades 1-9, focuses on foundational skills and knowledge. Upper secondary education, which includes grades 10-12, prepares students for further education or the workforce. Vocational education provides practical skills and training for specific careers.

The curriculum is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in society and educational research. It is overseen by the National Agency for Education, which ensures that schools adhere to its standards. The Yleiskuvassatilan aims to provide all students with a high-quality education that prepares them for life in a democratic society.
