Spain performs below the OECD average in mathematics, reading, and science based on PISA test results. While spending on education has increased, performance has remained stable and equity in education has deteriorated. Socioeconomically advantaged students outperform disadvantaged students by a wider margin than in 2003. Regional performance differences are largely due to socioeconomic disparities. Schools have less autonomy than other OECD countries and engage in less collaboration and evaluation.
Luxembourg continues to underperform in the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa), recording below average results in science, reading and maths since 2000.
The OECD triennial survey of 15-year-olds around the world reported Luxembourg students scored 477 points for science in 2018, compared to the OECD average of 487.
TALIS 2018 Pre-Launch Webinar - New insights on teaching and learning - What ...EduSkills OECD
Understanding teachers and school leaders as “professionals” means having high expectations of them as advanced knowledge workers. It means they should not only conduct their work in an effective manner, but also strive to improve their skills throughout their career, collaborate with colleagues and parents to work towards school improvement,and think creatively about the challenges they face. However, if we expect teachers and schools leaders to act as professionals, we should treat them as such. This report aims to provide an in-depth analysis of teachers’ and school leaders’ perceptions of the value of their profession, their work-related well-being and stress, and their satisfaction with their working conditions. It also offers a description of teachers’ and school leaders’ contractual arrangements, opportunities to engage in professional tasks such as collaborative teamwork, autonomous decision making, and leadership practices.Based on the voice of teachers and school leaders, the report offers a series of policy recommendations to help strengthen the professionalisation of teaching careers.The OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) is the largest international survey asking teachers and school leaders about their working conditions and learning environments, and provides a barometer of the profession every five years. Results from the 2018 cycle explore and examine the various dimensions of teacher and school leader professionalism across education systems.
The design of school learning environments can foster, or hinder, the teaching and learning of 21st century skills. By the time students complete their compulsory education, they will have spent many thousands of hours within school buildings. The same holds true for their teachers and school leaders who all too often are obliged to adapt to existing layouts in schools, rather than shape them actively.
The OECD School User Survey: Improving Learning Spaces Together gives voice to those who use schools on a daily basis. This unique OECD tool consists of three self-assessment questionnaires designed for students, teachers and school leaders. They can be used to collect and triangulate evidence on the actual use of learning spaces, as well as to solicit user perspectives.
Survey results can be used at the school level to support continuous improvement and the intelligent use or refurbishment of educational facilities. They can provide deeper insights into how physical learning environments shape teaching practices and affect students’ learning outcomes and well-being.

OECD PISA 2018 Results - U.S. Media Briefing EduSkills OECD
The OECD’s PISA 2018 tested around 600,000 15-year-old students in 79 countries and economies on reading, science and mathematics. The main focus was on reading, with most students doing the test on computers.
Teachers are the most important resource in today’s schools. In every country, teachers’ salaries and training represent the greatest share of expenditure in education. And this investment in teachers can have significant returns: research shows that being taught by the best teachers can make a real difference in the learning and life outcomes of otherwise similar students. Teachers, in other words, are not interchangeable workers in some sort of industrial assembly line; individual teachers can change lives – and better teachers are crucial to improving the education that schools provide. Improving the effectiveness, efficiency and equity of schooling depends, in large measure, on ensuring that competent people want to work as teachers, that their teaching is of high quality and that high-quality teaching is provided to all students. This report, building on data from the Indicators of Education Systems (INES) programme, the Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) and the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), explores three teacher-policy questions: How do the best-performing countries select, develop, evaluate and compensate teachers? How does teacher sorting across schools affect the equity of education systems? And how can countries attract and retain talented men and women to teaching?

This presentation was given by Stéphan Vincent-Lancrin at the Public Conference “Innovation in education : What has changed in the classroom in the past decade?”.
Measuring innovation in education and understanding how it works is essential to improve the quality of the education sector. Monitoring systematically how pedagogical practices evolve would considerably increase the international education knowledge base. We need to examine whether, and how, practices are changing within classrooms and educational organisations and how students use learning resources. We should know much more about how teachers change their professional development practices, how schools change their ways to relate to parents, and, more generally, to what extent change and innovation are linked to better educational outcomes. This would help policy makers to better target interventions and resources, and get quick feedback on whether reforms do change educational practices as expected. This would enable us to better understand the role of innovation in education.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. SPAIN
Key findings
•
•
•
•
•
Spain’s performance in mathematics, reading and science remains anchored just below the
OECD average, despite a 35% increase in spending on education since 2003 and numerous
reform efforts at national and regional levels.
Equity in education outcomes, in contrast, deteriorated over the same period. In 2012, socioeconomically advantaged students outperformed less-advantaged students by 34 score
points in mathematics – a 6-point larger gap in performance between the two groups than
was observed in 2003. In 2012, boys outperformed girls by 16 score points – a 7-point larger
gender gap in performance than seen in 2003; and students who had repeated a grade
underperformed by 102 score points in 2012 – an 10-point increase, since 2003, in the
performance gap between those who had repeated a grade and those who had not.
In Spain, schools have less autonomy over the content of what is taught and how it is
assessed than other OECD countries. For example, 58% of students attend schools that play
some role in determining which courses they offer, compared with 82% of such schools
across OECD countries.
High performers in PISA combine school autonomy with more collaboration, evaluation and
effective appraisal mechanisms among teachers and schools. In Spain, 26% of students
attend schools that use teacher-mentoring programmes (72% across OECD countries). Some
44% of students (62% across OECD countries) attend schools that benchmark their
performance nationally or regionally; and 46% of students (73% across OECD countries)
attend schools where teacher appraisals lead to professional development opportunities.
Some 55 score points – the equivalent of nearly a year-and-a-half of formal schooling –
separate the highest- and lowest-performing regions in Spain. More than 85% of the
performance differences in mathematics across regions are accounted for by socio-economic
disparities, compared with 47% of performance differences across regions in Italy, 16% in
Canada and 26% in Australia.
