Assessment in the Finnish Education System
In the Finnish education system, assessment focuses on holistic development rather than traditional exams. It plays two key roles:
Assessment is viewed as an ongoing, collaborative process which involves observation, documentation, evaluation, and meaningful feedback from teachers, students, and guardians. This comprehensive approach ensures that every child is supported in a thoughtful and inclusive learning environment.
We use Kindiedays, a platform that allows parents to track their child’s development. It provides real-time updates and personalized feedback. Parents will also have the opportunity to discuss progress during parent-teacher conferences.
Yes, we offer a bilingual approach that integrates both English and Arabic into our curriculum. English is the primary language of instruction, with Arabic incorporated to support cultural and linguistic development.
