School development that turns structure into stronger learning.
We help schools build a clear, research-based curriculum aligned with their vision and standards. Drawing on proven practices from Finland, the curriculum becomes a coherent foundation that guides teaching and strengthens learning throughout the school.
We equip teachers with practical, research-based training tailored to the curriculum, helping them teach with clarity, confidence, and consistency throughout the year.
We support ongoing development through structured feedback and data-informed insights. Regular reviews help your school strengthen learning, wellbeing, and everyday practices in a measurable way.
We work side by side with your leadership to improve systems, streamline operations, and align schoolwide practices with the learning goals you want to achieve.
Everything you need to elevate your school
Our Educational Program helps schools build a curriculum tailored to their unique vision and context, local or international. It can be aligned with Finnish, American International, or Cambridge Standards to ensure a strong, globally benchmarked foundation.
We see curriculum as the backbone of every successful school. That is why we partner only with institutions that recognize its central role in educational quality. By placing curriculum development at the core, each school gains a clear, inspiring direction for learning and growth.
To support implementation, the curriculum is delivered and managed through our Curriculum & Assessment Management Software.
Fennomena Elevate includes a robust foundational training for pedagogical staff, delivered on-site and tailored to the school’s curriculum. This program equips teachers with both orientation and practical strategies to effectively implement the curriculum.
To ensure sustained excellence, our ongoing professional learning program is conducted annually. This not only deepens pedagogical expertise but also supports the smooth onboarding of new staff, enabling them to deliver high-quality learning experiences from the outset.
We ensure continuous improvement through structured feedback and evaluation. By collecting insights from students, parents, and staff, we measure satisfaction and provide actionable recommendations.
This approach ensures that school development remains both data-driven and experience-driven, fostering meaningful and measurable growth.
Through Fennomena Elevate, schools receive ongoing consultative support to strengthen daily operations and long-term strategy. We work in close partnership with school leadership to enhance systems, align practices with international best standards, and support all areas of school development.
Our development work centers on improving learning quality through professional development and curriculum enhancement.

Fennomena Elevate is designed for schools that want clearer structures, stronger teaching, and better learning. It suits pre-Ks, kindergartens, and schools aiming for purposeful, sustainable improvement inspired by Finnish education and the well-known strengths of schools in Finland.
It is ideal for schools that want:
clearer structures and more coherent practices
stronger teaching quality and improved learning outcomes
development based on evidence rather than quick fixes
curriculum to drive learning consistently across the school
student wellbeing embedded in academic success
a partner who respects their identity, vision, and values
long-term, supportive collaboration
Elevate supports schools with a wide range of goals; from refining existing practices and preparing for accreditation to improving learning outcomes and building a healthier, more aligned school environment.
No. Many schools come to us with broad goals but no clear diagnosis. We start with an analysis that identifies strengths and gaps, supported by research and practices rooted in Finnish education. This ensures your development pathway is focused, realistic, and aligned with your vision, just as effective school systems in Finland do.
No. Elevate works with schools following any curriculum model; national, American International, Cambridge, IB, or blended.
Our approach is grounded in the strengths of Finnish education, clarity, simplicity, structure, and long-term sustainability.If your school wants to integrate selected Finnish curriculum elements or add Finnish-inspired learning goals, that is also possible.
We tailor the level of Finnish influence to your school’s vision, ensuring it enhances, not replaces, your identity.
Our partners consistently highlight the same strengths: we do not arrive with a ready-made list of demands or impose a rigid model on schools. Instead, we begin with your school’s vision, values, context, and needs. We believe meaningful school improvement requires:
respect for what the school already does well
clarity instead of complexity
sustainable progress rather than constant adding of new initiatives
Many schools try to improve by adding more programs, more systems, and more layers of work. Our experience, and the strengths of Finnish education, show that less is more. Strong learning comes from clear structures, focused work, and practices that are truly lived in everyday school life. That is why our approach creates lasting impact. We build development work that your school can sustain independently, long after the project ends.
Instead of adding new layers of work, Fennomena Elevate focuses on strengthening what matters most: curriculum, teaching, and everyday structures. This “less but better” philosophy, rooted in Finnish educational practices, helps schools maintain improvements long after our collaboration.
No. We respect what already works in your school.
Our work builds on your existing strengths, values, and culture.
Instead of replacing your identity, Elevate strengthens it by making learning, curriculum, and structures clearer and more coherent.
Yes, as long as priorities are clear.
We help schools avoid initiative overload by aligning all work under a coherent structure. This ensures that development is meaningful and does not compete with other priorities.
We begin by understanding your school’s goals, context, and current practices.
Based on this, we create a clear development plan that outlines the priorities, timeline, and support you will receive. From there, we work alongside your team through implementation; providing training, coaching, and practical tools to ensure changes take root.
Throughout the partnership, we monitor progress, gather feedback from key stakeholders, and make adjustments to keep the work effective, sustainable, and aligned with your school’s vision.
We use multiple forms of data:
stakeholders’ surveys
student learning indicators
wellbeing data
classroom observations
curriculum implementation checks
This combination ensures improvement is both evidence-based and grounded in the real experiences of students and staff.
Our goal is the opposite.
Many schools try to improve by adding more tasks, initiatives, and expectations. Elevate focuses on simplifying, clarifying, and removing clutter. Teachers report that their work becomes easier and more purposeful as structures and practices become clearer.
By strengthening curriculum, routines, and structures, Elevate reduces uncertainty and overload.
Clear expectations, shared practices, and coherent planning tools help teachers feel confident, supported, and able to focus on teaching, not firefighting. Wellbeing is not an add-on but part of how high-performing schools in Finland operate daily.
Yes. Schools can use Elevate to strengthen quality and documentation before accreditation visits.
We help align curriculum, teaching practices, policies, leadership structures, and learning environments with international standards while keeping the process manageable and focused.
Yes. Elevate is designed to strengthen all core areas that drive a successful school.
Because we work through clear structures, aligned practices, and strong curriculum implementation, schools typically see improvements in:
student learning outcomes
teacher and student wellbeing
operational clarity and consistency
readiness for accreditation or re-accreditation
Rather than addressing these areas separately, Elevate improves them together, ensuring progress that is measurable, sustainable, and aligned with your school’s vision.
We can make it happen together.
