Two years into the pandemic: How education systems have coped with the second year of COVID
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused massive disruptions to the learning of students at all levels of education. Although the availability of vaccines has improved the situation in most OECD countries, the school year 2021/22 was still marked by – sometimes severe – restriction to regular teaching and learning activities.
The OECD – in collaboration with UNESCO, UNICEF and The World Bank – has been monitoring the situation across countries and is collecting data on how each education system is responding to the crisis, from school closures and remote learning to remedial measures. The latest round of data collection covers the impact of COVID-19 during the school year 2021/22 and the recovery policies implemented by countries during this period.
This presentation show the findings from a survey of more than 30 OECD education systems.
Starting Strong - Empowering Young Children in the Digital Age - EDU Webinar ...EduSkills OECD
OECD’s Director for Education and Skills Andreas Schleicher presents findings from the report 'Empowering Young Children in the Digital Age' at the OECD Education Webinar on 23 May 2023.
Digitalisation and AI are transforming social and economic life at lightning speeds, creating new demands for education systems.
The use of new technologies can help develop the digital skills of young children and enrich their learning environment. But what are the challenges? And how can we support parents and early educators and carers in creating positive technology experiences for young children whilst also understanding and managing the risks that exist?

How can teachers get the best out of their students? Insights from TALIS 2018EduSkills OECD
1) The document analyzes data from the 2018 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) to provide insights into teacher and school preparedness for the COVID-19 pandemic from primary to upper secondary education.
2) It finds that teachers' access to information and communication technology (ICT) training varies significantly across countries and is generally lower for experienced versus novice teachers.
3) Collaboration and collegiality tend to decrease with higher education levels, though formal collaboration can boost teachers' self-efficacy in upper secondary.
4) Supporting student diversity and special needs is a priority in primary education, but teaching students with special needs is a relatively high stressor for these teachers.

Dream jobs? - Teenagers' career aspirations and the future of workEduSkills OECD
Every day, teenagers make important decisions that are relevant to their future. The time and energy they dedicate to learning and the fields of study where they place their greatest efforts profoundly shape the opportunities they will have throughout their lives. A key source of motivation for students to study hard is to realise their dreams for work and life. Those dreams and aspirations, in turn, do not just depend on students’ talents, but they can be hugely influenced by the personal background of students and their families as well as by the depth and breadth of their knowledge about the world of work. In a nutshell, students cannot be what they cannot see. With young people staying in education longer than ever and the labour market automating with unprecedented speed, students need help to make sense of the world of work. In 2018, the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), the world’s largest dataset on young people’s educational experiences, collected firstof- its kind data on this, making it possible to explore how much the career dreams of young people have changed over the past 20 years, how closely they are related to actual labour demand, and how closely aspirations are shaped by social background and gender.

In 2020, 1.5 billion students in 188 countries/economies were locked out of their schools.
Students everywhere have been faced with schools that are open one day and closed the next, causing massive disruption to their learning.
With the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic still raging, many education systems are still struggling, and the situation is constantly evolving.
The OECD – in collaboration with UNESCO, UNICEF and The World Bank – has been monitoring the situation across countries and collecting data on how each system is responding to the crisis, from school closures and remote learning, to teacher vaccination and gradual returns to in-class instruction.
Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, presents the findings of the survey of around 30 different education systems and their responses to the pandemic, looking at how strategies varied across countries, whether or not certain strategies were favoured, and what the impact of these strategies was.

Trends Shaping Education 2022 by Andreas SchleicherEduSkills OECD
1) The future will continue to surprise us with uncertainties like climate change, pandemics, and technological disruptions that will shape education.
2) Trends include growing inequality, new sources of economic growth in technology companies, and people pursuing better work-life balance through reduced working hours.
3) Knowledge and power are shifting as access to information increases through the internet and artificial intelligence, while science becomes more open through academic publishing and citizen participation in governance grows.
4) Identities and belonging are changing with more international migration, greater civic engagement in politics and associations, and younger minimum voting ages worldwide.

Teachers can shape their students' educational careers. Research shows that children taught by different teachers often experience very different educational outcomes. This begs the questions: how are teachers assigned to schools in different countries? And to what extent do students from different backgrounds have access to good teachers?
Andreas Schleicher presents the latest OECD TALIS analysis that shows how teachers with different characteristics and practices tend to concentrate in different schools, and how much access students with different socio-economic backgrounds have to good teachers. He then explores how we can change education policy to distribute strong teachers more fairly.

600,000 students representing about 32 million 15-year-olds in the schools of the 79 participating countries and economies, sat the 2-hour PISA test in 2018.
The document discusses three major trends in education: whole child education, project based learning, and STEM education. Whole child education focuses on the social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development of students. Project based learning uses investigations of complex topics to allow students to gain knowledge and skills. STEM education takes an interdisciplinary approach to teaching science, technology, engineering, and math. These trends are becoming more prevalent in schools as they encourage real-world application of knowledge and student engagement.
The document discusses the benefits of integrating technology into education. It states that technology tools can make teaching easier and more engaging for students. When used effectively, technology can facilitate active learning, meet individual student needs, and provide authentic learning experiences. For technology integration to be successful, technology resources must be accessible and used regularly in the classroom rather than just for viewing content. The document also notes that technology skills are necessary for students to develop for future success and that technology can increase teacher productivity.

Play, create and learn: What matters most for five-year-olds?EduSkills OECD
The OECD International Early Learning and Child Well-being Study asked over 4 500 five-year-olds what they liked best about their kindergarten or school.
Almost all children gave very specific answers, and many explained the reasoning behind their views.
Andreas Schleicher explores what we can learn from these children and how this can help education systems provide the best possible early learning environments.
Key questions we will address are:
-Why should education leaders and practitioners listen to children’s views, including children in the early years?
-What is the role of play in early cognitive and social-emotional development?
-Is there a trade-off between intentional teaching and learning, and unstructured play?

-What is the role of play in early cognitive and social-emotional development?
-Is there a trade-off between intentional teaching and learning, and unstructured play?
The links between school failure and serious psychosocial problems later in life are very strong for all children, regardless of family background. This is bad news for children in out-of-home care. They do poorly in the education system, worse than peers with the same cognitive ability. The good news is that most interventions targeting foster children’s school performance seem to yield positive results. Health is another area that has been neglected in the Nordic welfare states. Again, the good news is that relatively simple interventions can make a substantial difference. Bo Vinnerljung uses results from a host of national population studies and intervention studies to argue for a strong – “back-to-basics” – focus on education and health in child welfare practice.
Starting On Track To Career And College Readinessalester1025
Early learning opportunities from birth to age 5 are critical for children's development and later educational success. Children from low-income families often start school behind due to fewer language and cognitive experiences in early childhood. Providing educational support to parents and children as early as birth can help address developmental diversity and close achievement gaps. Research shows high-quality early childhood programs improve school readiness and lead to higher graduation rates, college completion, employment outcomes, and lower incarceration and health costs later in life.
Starting on track_to_career_and_college_readinessalester1025
Early learning opportunities from birth to age 5 are critical for children's development and later educational success. Children from disadvantaged backgrounds often start school behind due to fewer language and cognitive experiences in early childhood. Providing educational support to parents and children as early as birth can help address developmental diversity and close achievement gaps. Research shows high-quality early learning programs improve school readiness and lead to higher educational attainment, employment outcomes, and reduced social costs through grade 12 and beyond. Expanding access to early childhood education from birth to age 5 strengthens families and positively impacts children's lifelong learning and career trajectories.
The document discusses the link between poverty and educational attainment. Children from poorer backgrounds are much less likely to do well in school, with gaps emerging as early as age 3. High quality preschool and primary education can help compensate for this gap, especially when combined with programs that provide parents support and advice. While aspirations are generally high among low-income families, many do not believe their children will attain higher education. Effective parental involvement programs focus on equipping parents with skills to support early learning at home and help older children with schoolwork.
This document discusses developmentally appropriate practice (DAP) in early childhood education. It defines DAP as programs that contribute to children's development based on goals for children's present and future lives. When creating learning environments, DAP considers what is known about child development, individual children, and their social and cultural contexts. The document also discusses creating environments that support learning across domains for children of varying ages from infancy through the primary grades.
Making a difference? Education and health of children in out-of-home careSFI-slides
The document discusses the education and health outcomes of children in out-of-home care. It finds that school failure is a strong predictor of negative psychosocial outcomes for foster children. Two Swedish trials found that assessing foster children's literacy and numeracy skills, and providing individualized educational support, substantially improved their test scores and skills over two years. The document advocates for health assessments and monitoring of all children when entering care to address untreated health problems and promote better long-term health outcomes.
EFFECTS OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC BACKGROUND OF PARENTS ON THE ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT O...ResearchWap
Man as a social being is endowed with different abilities to explore his environment and possibly to improve the lots of mankind. That is why there are differences in educational attainment of students.
However, these variances are not only found in students’ characteristics like hereditary, age, sex and intelligence quotients which are believed to relate more strongly to his/her achievement levels. A considerable portion of variation in students could be accounted for, in other forms via socio-economic status of parents, family and environment, (family size), beliefs, value and prestige, reward of higher educational parental choice etc.
The effects of socio-economic background of parents on the achievement of their children in school have been a great factor in the recent decade in academic system in the country.
Socialization is the study of the society. Various sociological schools of thought have asserted that in deciding whether a child performs well or not at school is of immense importance to identify the difference between the influence of the socio-economic background of parents and their children’s academic achievement and attainment.
Capstone Research Paper. Fall 2015. Huang, Nguyen & ZhangZijian Huang
This study examines the impact of early childhood education programs, particularly Head Start, on children's non-cognitive outcomes using a national longitudinal dataset. The results indicate that children who attended Head Start improved in both internalizing and externalizing behaviors between 3rd and 8th grade compared to children who attended other pre-K programs or had no pre-K. However, Head Start children from low-income families did not fare as well in externalizing behaviors compared to children in other pre-K programs. This highlights the need to improve aspects of Head Start that address externalizing behaviors and enhance program quality for low-income children.
Measuring What Matters for Child Well-being and Policies - Key messages in a ...StatsCommunications
Key messages from the OECD publication Measuring What Matters for Child Well-being and Policies, launched on 1st July 2021. More information at https://www.oecd.org/wise/measuring-what-matters-for-child-well-being-and-policies-e82fded1-en.htm
The document discusses several factors that affect early childhood literacy development. It finds that parent literacy levels and income significantly impact children's literacy, with children from low-income or less educated families entering school far behind their peers. Early literacy interventions like reading with parents and preschool can help address these gaps. The effects of early literacy learning are long-lasting and influence children's academic success and socioeconomic outcomes. Early and sustained interventions are important to promote literacy development in young children.
Early literacy is strongly influenced by parental education levels and income, with children from lower-income or less educated families beginning school significantly behind peers. Learning disabilities can also impact literacy development by making reading, writing, spelling, and focusing difficult. However, regular parent involvement like reading with their child, as well as teacher interventions, can help increase literacy levels and close achievement gaps. Early literacy skills are important for future academic success.

Growing up in poverty young lives r4 findings_20march2015Young Lives Oxford
Growing Up in Poverty: Recent findings from Young Lives is a multi-country study following over 12,000 children in Ethiopia, India, Peru and Vietnam over 15 years to understand childhood poverty. The study collects data through surveys and qualitative research on children's education, health, work and aspirations. While countries have increased access to services, findings show unequal opportunities to learn based on household wealth and location. Children aspire to continue education but many factors like gender, rural residence and poverty influence whether they can achieve their goals. The long-term study provides evidence for policies to promote more equitable development and achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
This document discusses the importance of home learning environments for children's educational outcomes. It notes that children from poorer families often hear 30 million fewer words by age 4 than their better-off peers, and are more likely to leave school without qualifications or early. However, growing up in poverty does not predetermined poor outcomes. Research shows that parental interest in a child's education can help children from poor backgrounds succeed. The most accurate predictor of student achievement is the extent to which families create an encouraging home learning environment with high expectations, involvement in their child's education and community. The document also discusses barriers schools face in supporting home learning, such as only contacting struggling families, and parents' own poor school experiences limiting involvement.

This document summarizes key findings from the TALIS Starting Strong 2018 survey on diversity and quality in early childhood education. It finds that socioeconomic gaps in child development emerge early. While early childhood education can help disadvantaged children, quality varies between more and less diverse centers. More diverse centers often face greater shortages and lower parental involvement, though staff may have more diversity training and use adaptive practices. Ensuring resources for diverse centers, reducing diversity concentrations, and supporting family engagement could help reduce inequalities.

- PISA 2022 assessed the math performance of nearly 690,000 15-year-old students across 81 countries. It found the average math performance dropped by almost 15 score points across OECD countries since 2018, a larger decline than ever seen before.
- Factors like insufficient education resources, a shortage of qualified teachers, and more time spent on digital devices for leisure rather than learning were linked to lower math scores. However, stronger teacher support during remote learning and feeling prepared for independent learning were associated with higher performance and confidence.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

3. Questions on early equity?
Are there significant equity gaps among children at five years-of-age, based on
socio-economic status?
How do these equity gaps compare with those among 15-year-olds?
What risk factors are associated with poorer early outcomes?
Are there disadvantaged five-year-olds who do as well as their advantaged peers?
Does resilience increase or decrease with age?
What does it take to achieve a level playing field for disadvantaged
five-year-olds?
What can education leaders and policy makers do to give more
children a strong early start?
?
6. Rationale for this work
Increasing interest in children’s early learning outcomes arises from:
Concerns about
uneven quality of
ECEC provision.
Desire to
improve equity for
disadvantaged
children.
Growing realisation that
early learning improves
later success in school
and child well-being.
Increasing investment
in Early Childhood
Education and Care
(ECEC).

22. Starting behind means staying behind for many
disadvantaged children
Children’s early learning and well-being have a direct and
enduring impact on their later educational attainment, socio-
economic status, health, well-being and civic engagement.
Longitudinal studies consistently show that strong early
learning is associated with:
• lower grade retention and drop-out
• higher academic achievement
• healthier lifestyles
• improved parenting behaviours.
The proportion of
children who have poor
early development
constrains the extent
to which any education
system can achieve
success for these
children and perform well
as a whole.
