On November 10th President of Finland, Ms. Tarja Halonen (center, with blue jacket)<br />
presented the Excellence Finland 2011 Quality Awards.<br />
Results of the 2010 Finnish Quality Award Competition and the<br />
Excellence Finland Final 2011 are a concrete and objective evidence<br />
of the situation. In both competitions (business companies<br />
and other institutions combined) vocational institutions have succeeded<br />
to enter the small score of fi nalists (two amongst the 6 best<br />
in 2010 and one amongst the 4 best in 2011). No general education<br />
representatives have been visible.<br />
In spite of the success in PISA comparison, in applying systematic<br />
EFQM quality standards and procedures in everyday work place<br />
practices, Finnish general education is still more or less unmapped<br />
white area. To see something positive in the situation: the only way<br />
is up. <br />
