Techers have to go through years of training and study to become teachers in Sweden. They don't settle for mediocre teachers nor are they going to lower their standards. Because of this, there is a shortage and a high demand for well trained teachers.
When I was 7 yrs old - up here in Canada - I fell through the ice, on a frozen (partially frozen) lake. I was lucky to get out alive, and make it back to shore and safety. My legs were numb and like jelly by the time I got back. It was also at night. The thawing out was actually maybe the worst part. Going from almost frozen to really warm is hard on the body. I had severe aches especially in my legs and feet. I wish I would have that Swedish class...because I barely made it through that situation.
They can complain if they want, it's important to know how to climb out of a frozen lake yourself when winters gets so cold as it does in Sweden. (that sounded a bit rude, but eh haha)
Ive been living in Sweden for 23 years. Saying that, my daughter who went to school here, never had to learn how to climb out of a frozen lake. However, he lives in Stockholm and its surrounded by water all over. So its very appropriate to learn. But we did see videos about it. However, they do a lot of activites outdoors no matter the weather in all schools and even preschool. Swimming is a must for all children since Sweden has so many lakes. I think all kids must learn different swimming styles and must swimm at least 100 meters. Its important that the children have all the possible skills to survive in any terrain and weather in the country. I dont recall having videogames and other stuff during class. I did see pingpong tables and other stuff. I think it might be for the longer breaks for some schedules.
It's probably becuase you are in the south, I grew up in the north of Sweden were we have winter for atleast 5 months a year and we all got brought to a icy lake to learn what not to do, and how to get yourself out even if you do fall in. We did this with clothes on to simulate how it would be in real life (its harder to swim men wayed down by wet clothes). So it definetly is a thing, maybe not in the south though.
Yep, we all learn to swim and they keep track of it. I learned to swim, then forgot how and fell behind on it in my pre-teens. So when they caught that at age 14 I got free adult swim classes because every child should know how to swim. I think it's great.
From what I remember of school, E was a passing grade but I will say that they had recently introduced that grading system then. As for jumping in a frozen lake... our bathhouse had special equipment for training that in the pool, you also have to train saving someone from drowning and swimming in regular clothed. I think school lunches for teachers are only for lower grade students. I remember my higher grade teachers had to sign up which days they had school lunches to pay for later (still cheaper then going out to eat from what I understand). It might be different now for all I know.
The grade work as follows. E means all skills are at the basis level C, all skills are at the intetmediate level, A all skills are at the advanced level. B skillnad are at leadt at C level but several are at A level or on their way their. The same goes for grade level D. All skills are at least at E level but several are at C level or on their way there. The jumping in the icy lake is not mandatory but always some kids will do it. My son got to practice in a regular swimming pool on flooring mats/rafts.
Sigh. As a Swede... our school system is just a mess. It has been altered every five years it seems... and now I don't know WHAT the heck is going on. There is a huge problem with getting qualified teachers too, just as it was said in the video.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT The problem is that teatchers in sweden get paid far to little , and you have to study multiple years to become one. So people usually go for other higher paying jobs if they are going to study.
Problems came after privatisation and all the changes of the grade system. Finland our neighbouring country still has our old system and is one of the best school systems in the world.
Or is it a mess compared to what itnones was? It might still be good if you campare to for ex the US. Many swedes just like to say that sweden is so bad, not understanding how good we really habe it.
You learn how to swim in school and the ice water thingy is training so that you wont die if you fall through the ice when alone. And it is not like they throw the kids in and let them deal with it. It is very supervised and there is people around helping.
Swedish school lunch in my municipality outside Stockholm this week, if you're curious (this week, it's more like after-school/summer vacation care, schools here where I live went on holiday last week): Monday: Chicken OR veggie "pannbiff" (basically patties) with roast potatoes and sauce. Tuesday; hot dogs OR veggie dogs with condiments, Wednesday: Korean inspired bbq chicken with rice and vege OR pasta salad with basil, feta cheese and sun-dried tomatoes, Thursday: Carrot soup with ginger and coconut milk OR Tomato soup with basil and pasta, also fruit, bread and hummus, Friday: bbq pork tenderloin with smokey red wine sauce OR falafel with garlic sauce, with roast potatoes. ALSO AVAILABLE EVERY DAY: Hard crisp bread, butter, a salad buffet, filmjölk (a kind of Swedish yoghurt), musli and cornflakes. To drink, plain 1,5% fat milk and water.

We love winter activities here in Sweden. Ice fishing, Snowmobiling and ice-skating are really popular winter activities and it is important to know how to climb out of a hole in the ice because it may save your life one day to have that experience and to know how your body reacts to ice could water when they do these classes they would have worm clothes and a warm car nearby and it is voluntary to do it, at least it was for me when I was in 9th grade back in the 80s
I am currently studying to become a teacher. If you take the "official" route to become a qualified teacher you have to study for 4 years which many people don't want to do. When my program started we were 40 students, but now we are only 13. Some people got stuck behind grade barriers in between courses, others couldn't handle the necessary studying, and some got bored because they only wanted to be a teacher in one subject but had to study for 2-6 other subjects. I think around 30 qualified teachers graduate annually across the country while Sweden needs around 200 every year. Many of the teachers currently teaching in schools are either newly graduated or have worked as a teacher for 10-40 years.
The lunch is vital, if children from low income household do not get the nutrients they need how can they then improve their situation. I feel that this policy is criminally underrated and should be protected at all costs.
The schedules were always so fun🤣🤣🤣 So at the start of every year you would get the schedule and it could be very different between classes and grades. But it was always really fun to pick out the good and the bad days. I remember one year my class had a really short friday and we loved that day. Everyone was in high spirits and super excited for the weekend. I also remember that we had a hellish thursday one year, It had my most hated class and also my most beloved class on the same day and we started super early and finished super late with almost no longer breaks. Then we had a sleep-in monday once, and a short tuesday where we only had crafts after lunch and so on. I find the varied schudule to be a lot more fun😄
They need to learn how to swim and climb out of a frozen lake, it's a survival thing and you're not allowed to skip; they can complain all they want, school is mandatory by law (and home-schooling is illegal).
I have been a teacher since 1979 and still enjoy my work. Next year will be my last though. I have been at the same school for 30 years. All teacher at my school are qualified. We teach students at the age 6-13. He is talking about older students. Some schools have diffuculties to hire qualified teachers though.

What you don't get to know is that the MANDATORY education to be a Swedish teacher is 3 YEARS IN COLLEGE and 4 YEARS AT UNIVERSITY. Pretty high SAT scores are required to get accepted to university. The 4 years are free education but so is every other university and college education in Sweden as well. (that's what high taxes get you + free healthcare and medicines, no work or insurance required) Take that all tax cutting Republicans!!
It’s usually one teacher to all subjects for the most part.But the best is that the same Teacher goes with the class for X amount of years and all the kids become best best friends for life in a class
In Sweden, there is ice on our lakes for several months in the winter. Learning how to get up, if you happen to fell through the ice, can be the difference between life and death.
We have the same problem all over Scandinavia, we don’t have enough teachers. It’s not that people don’t want that education but most young people goes for the highest education and the highest payed salary.
When I went to school in the 90's, I had teachers in their late 60's teaching for 40+ years, and new teachers in their 20's. When those older teachers retired, it became really really hard to find qualified teachers. Boomers were done, baby.
GOOD hockey players, and good educated people, without guns to worry about at school. Safety and Health is a priority in most every Countries except the USA. Canada does not have shooting drills either but free and easy access healthcare. Many high schools include skating and swimming lessons in Canadian education. Frozen lakes are common in Canada too. Canada only provides funds for non-profit education schools (about 7% of schools are PRIVATE), over 90% of children are in PUBLIC schools.
Oh! The break rooms! Yeah, I went to an "english school" in Stockholm for 4 years (I think🤔), it was considered a pretty good school and it was. We had a big break room with one room having a ping-pong table, there was a small café in the entrance, or more like a loan station for ping-pong rackets and cards and other games, it only had like drinks and a few sandwiches in terms of food. There were also a bunch of tables, chairs and sofas in front of the café where I ususally played cards with friends. In the third and last room there was one of those old box-TVs and just some sofas. The older students usually occupied that room and I honestly didn't stay there much even when I was one of the older students. Well I graduated like 7 years ago, so there might be consoles in the break room now. I don't see how fun that would be though since there would be a limited amount of people able to play it at the same time, but that's just me.
To be fair, I as a Swede has never been made to swim in ice cold waters. I have done it myself though and I do reccomend it if it's close to a sauna or a warm swimming pool. The coldest I've been forced to swim in was in September in the Baltic see. It was 13 degrees celcius and I had to swim 200 meters in the cold sea waters. This was 10 years ago so I assume that it's still a thing.
Trust me when I say that the point system is million of times easier than the rubrix, it is incredibly hard to get an A at the end of the school year. Even if you have gotten A on previous test, because in the end, it is all about balance.
The reality when it comes to teachers is that the pay grade is way too low for the amount of studies and responsibility you have. A lot of teachers have also quit and changed their profession because of the lack of authority and the principles being complete idiots (harsh but it's a reality). I graduated high school almost 2 years ago and I went back as a fill-in for 7-9th graders and the disrespect given as a teacher was insane. They smoke, curse, lock teachers out, hit them and all of that is draining for a teacher with 30 students in one class. I quit after 2 months as it became mentally hard for me. Many parents didn't even care when it came to their kid's behavior, and many didn't even respond to the emails sent from the teachers, I was shocked, to say the least.
Most "ice safety" lessons is just crawling on the ice with ice pics. The schedule is because matching when teachers are avalible, since they theach difftent classes different time
I think you have to achieve at least E on every skill to have completed the subject. I've honestly never heard of anyone having to repeat a grade because of low grades, but that could just be because it's that rare or because you don't repeat grades, I don't know. From my experience, we have regular teacher - student talks, not neccessarily with the parents in the higher grades, and the teacher will ask about what grades they're aiming for and how things are going and such and the teacher will tell you at what grade you're currently at and what you have to do to achieve it. There will usually be complementary assignments available for those that have just a few skills missing from achieving a higher grade. Those are oppurtunities, if you don't perform at the required level you won't get the higher grade. So yeah, skill-based evaluations. I found that this system makes you feel more supported in your studies and especially with your wishes and goals being taken into consideration.
We have a long coastline and a lot of rivers and lakes. Knowing how to get up from the cold water if breaking trough the ice is vital and a good thing to learn also learn how to swim. We are a people that love outdoor activities like ice skating and ice fishing, going by snowmobile or skies on our waters, learning what to do and what equipment to use is a very good thing for the pupils tol learn. When it comes to swimming it is stipulated that schools shall educate the children in swimming to prevent accidents and unnecessary deaths. There shall also be teaching about how to behave close to water and what to do in an emergency situation; calling for help and also life saving actions like how to help someone in the water and do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (from lower highschool pupils and older).
I have never heard of jumping into ice and learning how to get out of it on my own and I am a sweetes student so that's got to be for specific schools only.
Sweden has over 95.000 lakes. Unless you know how to swim and how to act if you fall in with you clothes, if you fall in through ice. You will not survive. So many people in Sweden would have passed away every year if we did not teach kids how to swim and how to fall through ice. The fall through ice only happens more up north though. Where it does get it negative 25 celsius degrees (which is -13 degrees Fahrenheit).
As a swede this was really intressting!! To get an other side off how it can work. Its 8 years since I graduated high school and can see much have happend to the school here since. Had family members and friend that started universety studies to be teachers but didt finish and never want to work in schools. The system have become so messy and the kids have no respect anymore. My old junior high tryed with a poltable to get kids to come and not "skip classes" but in one week that table resulted in 5 rapes 3 on Girls 2 on boys. That says alot how swedish schools works on many places
The Swedish school system is one of a kind in so far that its the only one in the world where private companies are allowed to make a profit on the taxes we pay. This leads to that private companies want to make sure their expenses are low and therefor they hire unqualified teachers (whose wages are lower than those of qualified teachers). This along with a culture that for years have devalued the sociocultural worth of being a teacher, to the extent that people simply aren’t looking for that type of work. Of course this is amplified by the fact that teachers (regardless of being in private or public schools) have had negative wage growth since the 90s. This latter part is an effect of people not wanting to pay taxes. So, as usual; you get what you pay and vote for. The dipping in ice cold water, is a lifesaving exercise. As a lot of people go iceskating on lakes in wintertime, everyone should know how to listen to and look at the ice (is it singing? Are there cracks? Can you see waves lapping?) and how to save yourself if you go through and how to save someone else who’s in the water. Swimming with ice skates and winter clothes on, is really difficult.
As far as I know, people don't want to work as teachers primarly because of the low pay. The requirements are high to become a teacher and considering that and how much they work, the pay is too low.
Publicly funded private schools owned by for profit orgsnisations are sucking public funds out of the country and these funds end up in tax-havens abroad. It is a despicable system designed by naive politicians.
The most important jobs in society are health care, teaching, building and cleaning. Without those, society does not work. We can maanage without CEOs, but we can't live in a society without cleaners, teachers, nurses and builders.
No, It depends on wich grade you go in. In Highschool you have as a student have to go to different classrooms. In 1st to 4:th grade you have the same classroom. In 5:th you have some different classrooms. I as a Swede have never ever heard of or have had to jump into a (vak) hole in the ice.
Okay that about teachers... the problem is that a several years ago the law about teaching changes, the became a law that all teachers must have a teacherID./leg. So the work has't have the time to come up with qualify -techers. but in fact there are teachers, but tih the new law they need to restudi to get new ID. so there are teachers who still teaching, without the leg/id. they still got the knowlege but not been able to restudy and get the id. And its hard to get new educated students becaus of the situations, pay and such,
if you get e that means you have just barely passed but if you get the f which is after in the alphabet then that means you have a failed and you won't be passing anything until you get better grades. 😊💙💛💙
He forgot that we are really strict with no phones, when the teacher catches you with a phone in tne class or even on breaks they will take your phone and hand it to the principal. Then after school you have one hour to get your parent to school and go to the principal to get your phone back. If youre alone, or took too long and the 1h timer is out you will never get your phone back
@@kms4money Ok. I guess you live in southern Sweden. Of course the teacher take your phone if you don't follow the rules. But say that you never get it back is bs. So you actually mean your school is stealing other peoples phones. Then why don't you call the police if your school never give the phones back. That is against the law.
@kms4money This is not true! The techers are allowed to confiscate any non study-oriented objects, however most teachers just request the student put it away. The students always get their objects back, unless it is illegal then it is handed over to the Police, often at the END of the lesson or in some schools at the end of their school day. Grattis video!
Not worth studying to become a regular teacher that doesn't earn anything special and most schools the students act chaotically and the teacher can't really do anything about it, i've seen people hit the teachers and shit i live in Malmö.
5:01 The US Grading System destroys any & love for Learning in children & adults ~ 13:47 Taxes are higher, but you as a tax-paying citizen actually see & receive the _Services_ (like SCHOOL itself) said taxes provide- they go to the people & not just the military/guns 14:18 Sweden has a Union Federation so workers are treated like *People* , crazy, I know-
Western pupils are very rude and hard to deal with because they often lack discipline and respect for authority. This can make it challenging for teachers to effectively communicate and establish a positive learning environment. Additionally, Western pupils may also have a tendency to question authority and challenge traditional teaching methods. They are annoying to deal with because they constantly disrupt the classroom dynamic and resist following instructions. This behavior not only hinders their own learning but also distracts other students.
I never understood why different countries use the letters to qualify something and struggle to calculate and average by assigning percentages to each letter. I my country we note from 1 to 10 and is very simple to calculate if you have a 10, an 8 and a 7, your average in that trimester is 8.33, rounded at 8. Why burning your mind to calculate the average of A+, C- and F.
Dutch like me? Percentage grades orc1-10 t also take away the discussion some Swedish students/parents seem to think is possible about what grade to get becomes out of the question. With the Swedish system a lot is left up to the teachers discretion. One teacher might find mediocre what another teacher might find advanced.
teachers don't earn alot so people don't like to educate themselves to become a teacher...also many schools seem to want to hire uneducated people just to pay less. that may be preconcieved notions on my behalf though.
I feel like the swedes commenting are for some reason biased. As a swede myself I would say the swedish schoool system is fine. The problem is the crazy immigration from muslim and african countries.
No, the system is not fine. And it's not because of immigration. It started when the government put the responibility on muncipalities instead of the state and funding lacked. I'm also a swede so I know.
You seem to contradict yourself in two senteces. The system is fine but the problem is immigration. ???? I'm guessing You believe in Jesus aswell. The beloved saviour from Sölvesborg.
@@Anders_Eriksson How is that contradicting? I wrote that the school system is fine, but the immigration has destroyed many schools. There's nothing to do about it.

GOOD hockey players, and good educated people, without guns to worry about at school. Safety and Health is a priority in most every Countries except the USA. Canada does not have shooting drills either but free and easy access healthcare. Many high schools include skating and swimming lessons in Canadian education. Frozen lakes are common in Canada too. Canada only provides funds for non-profit education schools (about 7% of schools are PRIVATE), over 90% of children are in PUBLIC schools.
Oh! The break rooms! Yeah, I went to an "english school" in Stockholm for 4 years (I think🤔), it was considered a pretty good school and it was. We had a big break room with one room having a ping-pong table, there was a small café in the entrance, or more like a loan station for ping-pong rackets and cards and other games, it only had like drinks and a few sandwiches in terms of food. There were also a bunch of tables, chairs and sofas in front of the café where I ususally played cards with friends. In the third and last room there was one of those old box-TVs and just some sofas. The older students usually occupied that room and I honestly didn't stay there much even when I was one of the older students. Well I graduated like 7 years ago, so there might be consoles in the break room now. I don't see how fun that would be though since there would be a limited amount of people able to play it at the same time, but that's just me.
To be fair, I as a Swede has never been made to swim in ice cold waters. I have done it myself though and I do reccomend it if it's close to a sauna or a warm swimming pool. The coldest I've been forced to swim in was in September in the Baltic see. It was 13 degrees celcius and I had to swim 200 meters in the cold sea waters. This was 10 years ago so I assume that it's still a thing.
Trust me when I say that the point system is million of times easier than the rubrix, it is incredibly hard to get an A at the end of the school year. Even if you have gotten A on previous test, because in the end, it is all about balance.
The reality when it comes to teachers is that the pay grade is way too low for the amount of studies and responsibility you have. A lot of teachers have also quit and changed their profession because of the lack of authority and the principles being complete idiots (harsh but it's a reality). I graduated high school almost 2 years ago and I went back as a fill-in for 7-9th graders and the disrespect given as a teacher was insane. They smoke, curse, lock teachers out, hit them and all of that is draining for a teacher with 30 students in one class. I quit after 2 months as it became mentally hard for me. Many parents didn't even care when it came to their kid's behavior, and many didn't even respond to the emails sent from the teachers, I was shocked, to say the least.
Most "ice safety" lessons is just crawling on the ice with ice pics.
The schedule is because matching when teachers are avalible, since they theach difftent classes different time
Swedens population has grown fast because of the open boarders policy. Demografic changes has also been a big challenge. Still is. Its crazy!
I think you have to achieve at least E on every skill to have completed the subject. I've honestly never heard of anyone having to repeat a grade because of low grades, but that could just be because it's that rare or because you don't repeat grades, I don't know. From my experience, we have regular teacher - student talks, not neccessarily with the parents in the higher grades, and the teacher will ask about what grades they're aiming for and how things are going and such and the teacher will tell you at what grade you're currently at and what you have to do to achieve it. There will usually be complementary assignments available for those that have just a few skills missing from achieving a higher grade. Those are oppurtunities, if you don't perform at the required level you won't get the higher grade. So yeah, skill-based evaluations. I found that this system makes you feel more supported in your studies and especially with your wishes and goals being taken into consideration.
We have a long coastline and a lot of rivers and lakes. Knowing how to get up from the cold water if breaking trough the ice is vital and a good thing to learn also learn how to swim. We are a people that love outdoor activities like ice skating and ice fishing, going by snowmobile or skies on our waters, learning what to do and what equipment to use is a very good thing for the pupils tol learn. When it comes to swimming it is stipulated that schools shall educate the children in swimming to prevent accidents and unnecessary deaths. There shall also be teaching about how to behave close to water and what to do in an emergency situation; calling for help and also life saving actions like how to help someone in the water and do cardiopulmonary resuscitation (from lower highschool pupils and older).
I have never heard of jumping into ice and learning how to get out of it on my own and I am a sweetes student so that's got to be for specific schools only.
There is a reason for learning survival skills like getting up from icy water.
Escape from falling through the ice? Definitely on the curriculum. Advanced class, swimming under an ice cover. I did both.
Sweden has over 95.000 lakes. Unless you know how to swim and how to act if you fall in with you clothes, if you fall in through ice. You will not survive. So many people in Sweden would have passed away every year if we did not teach kids how to swim and how to fall through ice. The fall through ice only happens more up north though. Where it does get it negative 25 celsius degrees (which is -13 degrees Fahrenheit).
As a swede this was really intressting!! To get an other side off how it can work. Its 8 years since I graduated high school and can see much have happend to the school here since. Had family members and friend that started universety studies to be teachers but didt finish and never want to work in schools. The system have become so messy and the kids have no respect anymore. My old junior high tryed with a poltable to get kids to come and not "skip classes" but in one week that table resulted in 5 rapes 3 on Girls 2 on boys. That says alot how swedish schools works on many places
You two are intelligent, stylish and charming. Thanks.
The Swedish school system is one of a kind in so far that its the only one in the world where private companies are allowed to make a profit on the taxes we pay. This leads to that private companies want to make sure their expenses are low and therefor they hire unqualified teachers (whose wages are lower than those of qualified teachers). This along with a culture that for years have devalued the sociocultural worth of being a teacher, to the extent that people simply aren’t looking for that type of work. Of course this is amplified by the fact that teachers (regardless of being in private or public schools) have had negative wage growth since the 90s. This latter part is an effect of people not wanting to pay taxes.
So, as usual; you get what you pay and vote for.
The dipping in ice cold water, is a lifesaving exercise. As a lot of people go iceskating on lakes in wintertime, everyone should know how to listen to and look at the ice (is it singing? Are there cracks? Can you see waves lapping?) and how to save yourself if you go through and how to save someone else who’s in the water. Swimming with ice skates and winter clothes on, is really difficult.
As far as I know, people don't want to work as teachers primarly because of the low pay. The requirements are high to become a teacher and considering that and how much they work, the pay is too low.
and also hes not been here for a long time so take his reaction with care
ive been in a gaming class but it was optional and after regular school.
Our school s*cks right now. And it's going totally downhill since privately owned school were allowed.
Edit: Please do more Jonna Jinton by the way!
Publicly funded private schools owned by for profit orgsnisations are sucking public funds out of the country and these funds end up in tax-havens abroad. It is a despicable system designed by naive politicians.
The video with the playstation was about a Finnish school, so close.
i did the ice bathing thing in PE class, we had to jump in with clothes on.
The most important jobs in society are health care, teaching, building and cleaning. Without those, society does not work. We can maanage without CEOs, but we can't live in a society without cleaners, teachers, nurses and builders.
No, It depends on wich grade you go in. In Highschool you have as a student have to go to different classrooms.
In 1st to 4:th grade you have the same classroom. In 5:th you have some different classrooms.
I as a Swede have never ever heard of or have had to jump into a (vak) hole in the ice.
in school..ure in school u dont contact ure parents if theres not an emergency:)
At 8:00 depends on the school, not everywhere 🤔
Okay that about teachers... the problem is that a several years ago the law about teaching changes, the became a law that all teachers must have a teacherID./leg. So the work has't have the time to come up with qualify -techers. but in fact there are teachers, but tih the new law they need to restudi to get new ID. so there are teachers who still teaching, without the leg/id. they still got the knowlege but not been able to restudy and get the id. And its hard to get new educated students becaus of the situations, pay and such,
my dad is a teacher and he gets paid like shit there are people who are 19 that get paid more than him
That is absolutely not true. Teachers in Sweden are not paid like shit.
if you get e that means you have just barely passed but if you get the f which is after in the alphabet then that means you have a failed and you won't be passing anything until you get better grades. 😊💙💛💙
He forgot that we are really strict with no phones, when the teacher catches you with a phone in tne class or even on breaks they will take your phone and hand it to the principal. Then after school you have one hour to get your parent to school and go to the principal to get your phone back. If youre alone, or took too long and the 1h timer is out you will never get your phone back
That is Bs!!!
@@catd11ng74 well in my school and the schools in my city atleast
@@kms4money
Ok. I guess you live in southern Sweden. Of course the teacher take your phone if you don't follow the rules. But say that you never get it back is bs. So you actually mean your school is stealing other peoples phones. Then why don't you call the police if your school never give the phones back. That is against the law.
@kms4money This is not true! The techers are allowed to confiscate any non study-oriented objects, however most teachers just request the student put it away. The students always get their objects back, unless it is illegal then it is handed over to the Police, often at the END of the lesson or in some schools at the end of their school day.
Grattis video!
@@EEDSPELL depends on the school
Don't you have frozen lakes in the US?
Not worth studying to become a regular teacher that doesn't earn anything special and most schools the students act chaotically and the teacher can't really do anything about it, i've seen people hit the teachers and shit i live in Malmö.
5:01 The US Grading System destroys any & love for Learning in children & adults ~
13:47 Taxes are higher, but you as a tax-paying citizen actually see & receive the _Services_ (like SCHOOL itself) said taxes provide- they go to the people & not just the military/guns
14:18 Sweden has a Union Federation so workers are treated like *People* , crazy, I know-
Playstations in school? Never heard of that. Must be Denmark.
Nah, probably Norway 😉
Western pupils are very rude and hard to deal with because they often lack discipline and respect for authority. This can make it challenging for teachers to effectively communicate and establish a positive learning environment. Additionally, Western pupils may also have a tendency to question authority and challenge traditional teaching methods. They are annoying to deal with because they constantly disrupt the classroom dynamic and resist following instructions. This behavior not only hinders their own learning but also distracts other students.
I never understood why different countries use the letters to qualify something and struggle to calculate and average by assigning percentages to each letter.
I my country we note from 1 to 10 and is very simple to calculate if you have a 10, an 8 and a 7, your average in that trimester is 8.33, rounded at 8.
Why burning your mind to calculate the average of A+, C- and F.
Dutch like me? Percentage grades orc1-10 t also take away the discussion some Swedish students/parents seem to think is possible about what grade to get becomes out of the question. With the Swedish system a lot is left up to the teachers discretion. One teacher might find mediocre what another teacher might find advanced.
Is teaching about Geneder prononouns are realy that important so they need to have taxpayer money?
teachers don't earn alot so people don't like to educate themselves to become a teacher...also many schools seem to want to hire uneducated people just to pay less. that may be preconcieved notions on my behalf though.
Teachers in Sweden earn well. It's only Bs that they have a low salary
I feel like the swedes commenting are for some reason biased. As a swede myself I would say the swedish schoool system is fine. The problem is the crazy immigration from muslim and african countries.
No, the system is not fine. And it's not because of immigration. It started when the government put the responibility on muncipalities instead of the state and funding lacked. I'm also a swede so I know.
So you’re one of those that blames everything on immigration?
You seem to contradict yourself in two senteces. The system is fine but the problem is immigration. ???? I'm guessing You believe in Jesus aswell. The beloved saviour from Sölvesborg.
@@Anders_Eriksson How is that contradicting? I wrote that the school system is fine, but the immigration has destroyed many schools. There's nothing to do about it.
