I guessed that it would be Denmark from the title. I listened to a podcast in which a British woman talked about her experience of moving her family from the U.K. to Denmark. A lot of it sounded wonderful.
The U.K. is certainly not as rigid as the US, but the problem with education here is that it’s about getting the school the best exam results, rather than the learning and experience of the kids. I am grateful that the teachers in my kids’ schools are very empathetic and that well being and happiness are important to them.
