This IFUW proposal is excellent. I am really pleased that IFUW emphasizes the role of curriculum and teacher training. A local curriculum based on national guidelines and MA exam for all teachers (also primary level) are the secrets of high quality education which Finland is famous for. Not every country can afford university education for teachers, but much can be done also with less resources. Very important factor is the status of teacher profession. Anyone who is proud of her work, does it well.
