Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, takes a more in depth look at the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) 2025 results.
PISA is the largest international comparative survey of 15-year-old students, assessing how well they can apply what they learn to real world problems. More than 760,000 students in 91 countries and economies took part in the 2025 assessment, which evaluates their skills and knowledge in science, mathematics, reading and computational problem solving. In addition, the test highlights the attitudes of 15-year-olds in areas such as curiosity, perseverance and learner agency, as well as how they use AI for schoolwork.
