The Danish Union of Teachers, DLF, organises the teachers of the public basic school and counts 95,000 members.
The DLF was established in 1874 and is the only union to organise the teachers of the Danish public basic school, called the Folkeskole.

It is our objective to safeguard the interests of our members in matters relating to educational theory and practice, economic and employment conditions, and to strengthen unity and further the development of the Folkeskole.
