"Wanita Indonesia Ungkap Biaya Sekolah di Finlandia, Surga Pendidikan Tanpa Bayar Sepeserpun" translates to: "Indonesian Woman Reveals School Fees in Finland, Education Paradise Without Paying a Penny"

Dream – The funds needed for a child's education vary depending on the chosen school and respective region. One thing is certain, education costs are generally not small. Typically, the more complete the school facilities, the greater the expenses incurred. However, this is not the case for schools in Finland. Here, parents can be relieved because they don't have to spend a single penny on their child's school fees.

The following is revealed by an Indonesian woman living in Finland through the TikTok account @chimyinfinland. She said that the cost of Education Development Contribution (SPP) in Finland is zero euros, meaning it is free. In Finland, she said, children attending public, international, and private schools are not charged any fees. Meanwhile, private schools under government supervision are not allowed to seek financial profit or be used as a business.

"SPP zero euros because public schools, international schools, and private schools are free. Private schools are under government supervision and education should not be for business or seeking financial gain. Its funding is from the state," he wrote."

Not only the tuition fees are free, uniforms, textbooks, Student Work Agencies (LKS), notebooks, and stationery are not charged any fees. As for uniforms, schools in Finland do not have specific regulations regarding them and allow their students to wear whatever clothes they want. Other needs such as textbooks, notebooks, LKS, and stationery are provided by the school. However, if there is a need for additional items beyond that, they must be purchased by oneself.

"\u201cZero euro uniform because the school allows free dress. Textbooks, workbooks, notebooks, and writing materials can all be obtained from the school for free, but can also be purchased for additional use if desired,\u201d said the woman. After-school lessons or tutoring are also provided for free. Teachers will provide extra hours after school to give additional material if needed. According to her, the function of the school is used for learning. If a student is not able to learn yet, then the school will try their best to teach the student until they can."

"Free Transportation"

"Zero euro lessons, if needed, teachers or assistants provide additional hours after school to help the child. The function of school is to learn, so if they still can't, they will be taught again," he explained. Because the school uses a zoning system, students who live more than five kilometers from the school will receive free transportation services or city transportation."

"Transportation costs 200 euros per year, vouchers for public bus rides to the city. Actually, it can be free because Finland adheres to a zoning system, so if the school is more than five kilometers away, they can get a pick-up and drop-off facility or ride the minibus for free. I pay because my first child goes to an International School by our own choice, that's why we still pay for transportation ourselves. The transportation cost for my second child is zero euros because their school is close to home."

he/she expressed

Because all education costs are free, the woman only spends money on buying her child's school bag. "Other expenses, just buying a bag. Shoes and clothes are using the equipment used for playing because in daily life in Finland we still wear shoes and clothes," said the woman. Report: Nisya Aprilya
