PISA - more bad news for UK Education

PISA - more bad news for UK schools 
And as if to emphasise the issues raised above in the case of Apprenticeships, PISA, the international comparison of educational achievement run by OECD came out recently.
England and NI did badly, Scotland was slightly better and Wales came off worst, All four home nations sit well down the rankings with no relative improvement on an international basis. Interestingly, and only perhaps because the Government has used this country as an example of good practice, Sweden came 38th, some 15 places behind the UK average.
