Preface

I have been asked many times this question, 'why would I, as a lawyer, be interested in education and come all the way to Finnish schools?' Maybe I'm just a bit odd. My interests are not limited to law, and I am not contemplating a career exclusively in law either. This is really just a start for me to do something, and I hope that I can keep it up in some way in the future. I hope that this project can increase our understanding of the Finnish school system, as well as invite us all to rethink what education means, how it could be done better, and what our dreams and interests are.
