How Estonia does it: Lessons from Europe’s best school systemIn Estonia children learn robotics from the age of seven and teachers use virtual reality to bring geography, chemistry, history and languages to life. Its schools are also the best at promoting fairness and Estonian pupils are among the happiest in the OECD. Estonia, or e-Estonia as it likes to be known, sees itself as a start-up nation and 99 per cent of government services are delivered online. Most homework and school tests are set digitally, reducing the amount of marking for teachers. There is also a national online library of more than 20,000 educational resources called the “e-Schoolbag”.
