The TES Podcast - PISA special




tesconnect show

Summary: Tune in to the second of our special edition podcasts where we take an in-depth look at the latest PISA world rankings. We hear from Andreas Schleicher, the man behind the international league tables and education minister Elizabeth Truss, who is part of a department that is basing many reforms off the back of the PISA results. We caught up with Sir Michael Barber, a former adviser to Tony Blair, whose government was responsible for educating the students taking the tests. And, finally, we spoke to Pasi Sahlberg, who works for the Finnish government and who gave his verdict on Finland's poorer than expected performance.
