Students can now test their skills in solving PISA tasks online. The Ministry of Education and Science has set up a module on its website with a link to the special platform. It contains sample tests in three areas - science, mathematics and reading - that will be the focus of this year's PISA 2025 survey.
The survey will take place between 24 March and 9 May and will involve around 9,600 ninth graders from 211 schools across the country. The international study is conducted by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). It is conducted every three years and includes 15-year-old students from all over the world. This year's survey focuses on science.
The Ministry of Education and Science has announced that it is preparing curriculum changes aimed at making students' knowledge and skills more practical, in line with the focus of PISA research.
