Bahá'í-lukio briefly in English
The Bahá'í High School (Bahá'í-lukio in Finnish) is an open education scheme offered by the Bahá'í community of Finland that gives its students tools for researching and deepening in the Bahá'í writings.
The purpose of the Bahá'í High School is to strengthen the knowledge, volition and action of each Bahá'í youth aged 15–18 and make them conscious of their role as future spearheads in society. All willing participants, regardless of their religious background, may study at the Bahá'í High School.
The Bahá'í High School curriculum, accepted by Finland's National Board of Education, can be substituted for the ordinary Finnish high school curriculum for religious education.
There are four years of teaching, each with a component of learning and application in acts of service for the advancement of civilization. The courses have been organized into four themes so that each is linked to the previous subject:
(1) God's Plan for Humanity and its Realization through the Covenant
(2) The Divine Plan and its Gradual Realization
(3) The Unfoldment of the World Order of Bahá'u'lláh
(4) The Spiritualization of the Individual
Although, there are only four meetings per year, self-directed learning goes on throughout the year. The teaching methods used in the gatherings are lectures, discussions, student talks and presentations in Finnish.
