PISA 2024/25
We are currently preparing for the upcoming PISA 2024 Field Trial in Scotland. You can find out some initial information on the Field Trial below:
PISA
The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is the world’s biggest international education study, involving schools and pupils in 85 countries around the world.
NFER is delivering PISA 2025 in Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Government. If you are a pupil, parent or from a school in Scotland and have been contacted about taking part in the PISA 2024 Field Trial, please click on one of the links below for further information.
PISA provides high-quality, internationally comparable data to inform education policy in the UK and across the world. The results are used to improve teaching and learning in maths, reading and science and to provide valuable insights into background factors such as pupils’ attitudes, school resources, teaching practices and qualifications, and how they relate to pupil achievement.
The PISA international dataset traces trends in education as far back as the year 2000, within the UK and internationally. PISA 2025 will provide important evidence on the experiences and outcomes of the current cohort of 15-year-olds being educated in post-pandemic Scotland.
NFER and PISA
NFER has been involved in delivering PISA in the UK for over 20 years.
The last full PISA survey was conducted in Autumn 2022. The results from this survey will be published on 5 December 2023.
