The Swedish education system used to be a good example, but looking at the new PISA results, Sweden is among the countries with the strongest deterioration in school education in reading, mathematics and science. The only thing Sweden has achieved is to narrow the gap between top and low performers – obviously by lowering the overall average.
It is also notable that in spite of worse performance the belief of the students in their abilities is increasing in Sweden.
I cannot say that I am completely surprised by these findings…
