Production of Education

Education Policy and Institutions

Since the publication of the latest results of the PISA Study, the German educational system has been the topic of broad discussions in the public and among policy-makers. Questions which arise are, for instance whether the rather poor performance of German secondary school students in PISA or the (somewhat better) performance of German primary school children in PIRLS are connected with the specific educational system and what changes could be made in order to improve the educational outcome.

Research at the ZEW concerning educational policy focuses on

• the evaluation of the national schooling system, also in an international context
• the discussion on the integration of disadvantaged groups in society through education.

We plan to deepen our understanding of these topics in future research projects.
Policy aspects are also concerned with the financing of education and with efficiency and equity aspects.
