Main Article Content
Abstract
From ancient times to the present day, education is a most important factor in the development of humanity. For that reason, a large number of countries invest all available resources in research and improvement of education systems. However, the improvement of education system of a country is not an easy task, and its experts are faced with an extremely important and extensive task. It is especially difficult to implement ideas and methods that have never been implemented before. Putting the idea into action often requires different resources, without necessary guarantee of success. That is why a large number of countries decide to initiate cooperation with other countries in the world, with the aspiration to implement an exchange of knowledge and experiences among experts employed in various education systems, different kinds of analyses of education systems are often created as a result of such meetings and exchanges, which include one or more countries in the world. This way of exchange contributes to a better understanding of the education system of the country, but also to recognizing advantages and disadvantages of different education systems, and finding ways to improve them, as well as space to implement desired components of another country’s system. Precisely for these reasons, the aim of the paper is to consider and analyze education system of the Kingdom of Denmark with special reference to systems of preschool, primary, secondary, and higher education.
