Foreigners living in Denmark this morning woke up to a new reality of home-working, supermarket stockpiling, and for parents, the unexpected burden of all-day childcare. The Local asked them how they were coping.
Danish education is often seen as an effective and healthy model, in which the well-being of pupils is primary. But recent years have seen changes and reforms implemented, challenging the whole system.
Amongst the 28 EU member states, as well as five other countries, Denmark takes a solid fourth place when it comes to school leavers’ skills in reading, mathematics and science.
A high proportion of Denmark’s schools have chosen to implement rules against smartphones in classrooms, after the government decided against national legislation on the area.
