Based on the trust-based system of education in Finland, the authors present ways in which teachers and school leaders can develop teacher-powered education systems. Seven key principles for building a culture of trust in schools are suggested:
· Educate teachers to think
· Mentor the next generation
· Free within a framework
· Cultivate responsible learners
· Play as a team
· Share the leadership
· Trust the process
