Hi Alek,
I'm maybe the leading legal help for teachers in Finland. I can immediately see that the comparative table of the report is flawed for Finland, stating much more lenient rules that are actually in place. It seems a "yes" for a certain activity is recorded if there's even some provision for that activity. Sadly, many of the education-related provisions are tied to print media and face-to-face education (most, in fact).
In Finland, the legality of presenting video material is totally unclear. Movie companies of course sell rights to schools, but the issue is not clear. In general, any derivative work creation by students is also in the dark; there's no legal provision that allows it, but nobody seems to mind as long as no commercial interests are violated. The question of whether a classroom and its activities would be considered a private venue, is also unclear.
How should we proceed?

Dear all,
We're preparing for the Communia project an article about the copyright exception for educational purposes. We're building on Teresa Nobre's research (http://oerpolicy.eu/our-new-report-on-educational-resources-end-copyright-exceptions-and-limitations/) , but we're also searching for cases of practical issues challenges with this exception - we'd like to know what works badly with current law, at best on specific examples.
Maybe you have any observations or reflections relating to your country? Or you know of any articles, reports, studies on this issue?
For example in Poland directors of schools have problems with such organizations as Motion Picture Licensing Company. They are forced by MPLC to buy their "umbrella licences" because according to the Polish copyright exception for educational purposes it’s not clear when a teacher can show a movie without a consent of the copyright owner. You may have heard about something similar in your country?
I'd be grateful for any information.
best,
