The Sunday afternoon show with Maud Waret 10-04-22: Danish Education

Maud is on holiday in Denmark and she decided to talk about this little Scandinavian country to her fellow educators and dear listeners. Often mentioned in the UK press as an example to follow or get inspired by, the Danish educational system is quite different from the UK or US ones because it relies on a socialist approach to universal and accessible education.
Today's guest is a teenager who lives near Copenhagen: Jens is only 16 but he is fluent in English like most of the Danish population. How do they achieve such a high rate of multilingualism? Tune in or download the podcast!
Happy Easter
