Policy options for stronger, more equitable student outcomes in Türkiye
In 2021, an OECD team undertook analysis of Republic of Türkiye’s data from two international
assessments – the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the
International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA)’s Trends
in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). The analysis aimed to understand
how student performance in Türkiye has evolved over time and whether factors related
to student background – such as gender or socio-economic background – are associated
with performance. This policy perspective uses the findings from the PISA and TIMSS
analysis to identify policy options to help Türkiye to raise performance and improve
equity.
This policy perspective provides suggestions across five policy areas for Türkiye
to create a stronger policy focus on overcoming obstacles for more equal opportunities
for students.
