The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment(PISA) assesses the extent to which students, who are near the end of compulsory education, have acquired some of the knowledge and skills that are essential for full participation in society. It presents evidence on student performance in reading, mathematical and scientific literacy; reveals factors that influence the development of these skills at home and at school; and examines the implications for policy development. With to report Literacy Skills for the World of Tomorrow--Further results from PISA 2000, OECD and the UNESCO Institute for Statistics extend the picture that PISA provides to additional countries that have recently joined the programme. The report shows considerable variation in levels of knowledge and skills between students, schools and countries. Not all of these differences are due to the social and economic conditions in which students live and schools or countries operate. Some countries have managed to mitigate the influence of social background and some have achieved this while reaching a high overall level of performance. These are noteworthy achievements. Will other countries take up to challenge?
