    In this episode of "The World in English," we take a deep dive into school systems around the world. From Finland's play-based, low-testing approach to Singapore's rigorous academic structure, we explore how different cultures educate their young people and what these differences reveal about their values. We'll talk about school life beyond the classroom – extracurricular activities, academic pressure, and unique traditions from various countries. We also tackle some of the biggest challenges facing education today, like the digital divide and teacher burnout, while looking at exciting innovations such as AI-powered personalized learning and competency-based curricula. Whether you're a student, educator, or just curious about how education shapes society, this episode offers plenty of insights while helping you practice advanced English vocabulary in context.
