This chapter describes the implementation of the national level science education policy through national and local level curriculum and teacher education. We highlight: (1) the science curriculum for compulsory schools and the Finnish approach to implement it through local level curriculum, (2) the science teacher education programme, and (3) science teaching and learning at the school level and assessment. Finnish national level science curriculum has emphasised similar competencies as described in the PISA science 2006 framework. Further, we would like to emphasise that Finnish science teachers are academic professionals, who are competent at implementing ambitious curriculum autonomously in the classroom. Finnish science teachers are masters in their subjects with intermediate level studies in education.
