Denmark consistently ranks among the happiest countries in the world, and its education system reflects the Danish values of trust, equality, and collaboration. Danish schools focus on fostering curious, independent thinkers within a supportive and non-competitive environment.
## Education system overview

Danish education comprises folkeskole (comprehensive school, ages 6-16), gymnasium or other youth education (ages 16-19), and higher education. The folkeskole combines primary and lower secondary education in one institution. Denmark has a strong tradition of free schools (friskoler) — privately run but publicly funded alternatives. International schools in Copenhagen, Aarhus and other cities serve the growing expat community.
