PISA 2018 Results (Volume V)
Effective Policies, Successful Schools
The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines what students know in reading, mathematics and science, and what they can do with what they know. It provides the most comprehensive and rigorous international assessment of student learning outcomes to date. Results from PISA indicate the quality and equity of learning outcomes attained around the world, and allow educators and policy makers to learn from the policies and practices applied in other countries. This is one of six volumes that present the results of the PISA 2018 survey, the seventh round of the triennial assessment. Volume V, Effective Policies, Successful Schools, analyses schools and school systems and their relationship with education outcomes more generally. The volume covers school governance, selecting and grouping students, and the human, financial, educational and time resources allocated to teaching and learning. Trends in these indicators are examined when comparable data are available.
Assessments, evaluations and how they are used
This chapter examines four evaluation and assessment activities in particular: student assessments, data-collection practices, school accountability and improvement actions at school. It discusses how school systems use the information they gather from these evaluations and assessments. The ways school systems use this data are then correlated with student performance and equity in the education system.
