Estonia: Lifelong Learning Strategy 2020
Description
The Estonian Lifelong Learning Strategy considers every individual as a learner – children as well as youth and adults. Learning must become an integral part of an individual’s active approach towards life, including among those who are older. Collectively, teachers are those professionals who guide learning processes and develop learning environments in kindergartens, general schools, vocational schools, higher education institutions, hobby schools, non-formal and informal education centres, in-service education centres, open youth centres, museums and other cultural institutions. The term school leadership includes the Heads of these learning institutions. The approach to learning includes an understanding of the nature of learning, its goals, methodology and the role of all the various parties involved in the learning process.
