Brown, Heba El-Deghaidy, Rima Karami-Akkary, Marwan Muasher, and Christina Zacharia The skill and performance gaps within the global labor force underscore the crucial need to prioritize budgetary support for education and educational institutions. National leaders must recommit themselves to educational reform, adopt a proactive stance, and take decisive action. Education should be prioritized not only in rhetoric but also in budget allocations and policy decisions. Verbal commitments must be substantiated with tangible investments. #skillsgap #performancegap #eduction #reform #educationalresearch #research #researchimpact #prioritizeeducation

It is exceptional for assessments to publish their costs. kudos to Hilaire Hounkpodoté & CONFEMEN for the transparency in this article: https://lnkd.in/ep42wnWt Here are a few things I have learned from working closely with PASEC and being on their steering committee over the past couple of years: 1. In the last 2019 round (published in Dec. 2020), PASEC covered 3 juncture: lower primary and upper primary students as well as a teacher content and pedagogical knowledge survey in 14 francophone countries. https://lnkd.in/e5YGBmN7 2. In next cycle in 2025, PASEC is expanding to 21 countries. These include the participation of the anglophone Nigeria and of the Lusophone Mozambique. Some countries like Senegal are administering for the first time in national languages in the early grades. They are also adding a lower secondary module. 3. More countries, more languages, more modules, this all has implications on sampling and costs. In the blog above, pasec explains the shift in international costs and national costs that resulted from these choices. 4. A key insight is that cost increases can be broken down between national and international costs. The international costs are the fees that PASEC receives. This is the only costs that international assessments usually publicize. PASEC’s shifted from 520k to 775k , a 49% increase, that can be understood by the fact secondary schools is a fully new sample. For comparison, international assessments announce fees of ~600k only for one module. So 775k is not a crazy cost for four modules in two different samples of schools. 5. National costs have increased significantly too. From 625k to 1.1M. These are costs that countries incur to do the administration sometimes with their own staff. Countries have actually the ability to control those depending on whether they pay per diems or not and at what level they set them. 6. In the context of the 2025 rounds, some countries like Nigeria have showed leadership in adapting their national costs to levels that made sense to them in terms of total costs of the evaluation. 7. The practice of announcing national costs from the start is specific to pasec and comes from the concern that if costs are not set aside early on, budgets could be re-allocated. It s a unique practice. It would be interesting to better understand the pros and cons of this model vs. the standard model of letting countries dealing with their national costs. 8. Beyond this cycle, there are strategic decisions awaiting PASEC, including a potential expansion to more non-francophone African countries, pioneered by Nigeria and Mozambique, *if* ther is demand. A similar model to ERCE/LLECE in Latin America. Looking forward to seeing the results of the 2025 cycle and warmly recommend the read!

🌟 Shaping Higher Education in Fiji 🌟 Several years ago, the Higher Education Commission Fiji embarked on a transformative journey to enhance its regulatory practices, setting a new standard for higher education in Fiji. With a five-year grant from the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the project aimed to develop risk-based monitoring and evaluation systems and lay the groundwork for an employer-led work-based learning system. Consultant Martin Draper played a pivotal role in this journey, tasked with developing a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation framework. Through extensive research and stakeholder engagement, the framework was meticulously crafted, focusing on principles such as self-assessment, annual monitoring, periodic review, and risk management, setting a strong foundation for quality assurance in higher education across Fiji. Today, the impact of this project reverberates through Fiji's education landscape, with the Higher Education Commission employing the framework to ensure the quality and relevance of higher education institutions. This initiative stands as a testament to the power of collaboration and innovation in shaping the future of education, leaving a lasting legacy of excellence and opportunity for generations to come. Together, we can drive transformative change and shape the future of #vocationaleducation in your region.

It's a Wrap! We are pleased to announce that the final technical report of the project "Strengthening the Governance model in Pre-tertiary Education in Romania" is now available. I was delighted to be able to deliver the closing remarks for a project that covered important areas such as school evaluation and support, educational resources, the teaching profession, and data and monitoring systems. It was also a great learning experience for me and my colleagues. The Ministry of Education - Romania received technical assistance to implement secondary legislation following the adoption of the new law on pre-university education, a result of the Educated Romania project. In this sense, the OECD - OCDE provided continuous support on difficult issues to be addressed in the coming months. Our sincere thanks go to Elizabeth Fordham, Laura Abadia and Ana Tăbăcaru, as well as to all the OECD experts who helped us in this endeavour. The project was financed by DG Reform through the Technical Assistance Instrument. I would like to thank Raluca Painter, Florin Popa and Rima Joujou-Deljkic for their constant support. It is expected that the conclusions and recommendations will be used as a basis for further secondary legislation. The report can be downloaded from the following address: https://bit.ly/4389e2j #education #Romania #EducatedRomania #governance #technicalreport #projectmanagement #schoolsystems #evaluation #teaching #policyreform #MinistryofEducation #OECD
