List of Normal Schools By Country - Finland

Finland

In Finland, every Faculty of Education has one or several normal schools (Finnish: normaalikoulu) to give aspiring teachers a chance for teaching practice as a part of their academic curriculum. The schools may, depending of the type of teachers educated, offer education for pupils in age groups 7–12, 13–19 or both. Administratively, the schools are part of their universities, but the pupils for the schools are accepted as to usual municipal schools. The academic curriculum followed by the pupils is the same as in all other schools of the same type, but the normal schools frequently engage in research programs which may necessitate minor curriculum alterations.
