Use of learning assessment data
617 million children do not reach minimum levels of proficiency in reading or arithmetic, even though two thirds of them go to school. Therefore, for many pupils across the world, schooling does not produce real outcomes. While learning assessments may be in vogue, the data that result from them are often neglected by states or taken into account in a superficial way. The IIEP research produces knowledge and formulates recommendations to improve practices in the use of the results of learning assessments.
The IIEP project takes the form of a series of case studies. It explores learning assessment systems in six countries and leads to the production of policy briefs for each of them.
