By Plenary Sessions: Heljo Pikhof

The speaker demonstrates profound expertise in the field of education policy, particularly concerning school dropout rates, the development of vocational education, and curriculum flexibility. Specific statistical data is utilized (for instance, 550–650 young people do not continue their education), along with technical terms such as "buffer year" and "learning bites." This expertise is further supported by references to the positive experiences of Finland and Germany regarding extended compulsory schooling.
