摘要:AbstractIn the current era of globalisation the OECD has revealed a great prominente and impact in supranational and national educational policies. The results of PISA are being taken very seriously by the participant countries. The outstanding performance of Finnish students in PISA has transformed Finland into a reference laboratory for politicians that seek to improve their educational systems. The comparison between Finnish and the Spanish comprehensive schools reaches some academic conclusions which highlight the quality and the efficiency of educational tradition and of the pedagogical conservatism displayed by Finnish teachers in their teaching and learning practices.
