The OECD has published a report with a special analysis of PISA data from 2003 on the performance of immigrant students.
 Ethnic minority youth
Drawing on data from the OECD's Programme for International Students Assessment (PISA), this report examines the performance of students with immigrant backgrounds and compares it to that of their native counterparts. As well as providing information on countries' approaches to the integration of immigrants, it looks at other factors that could influence immigrant students' performance - such as their attitudes to school, their motivation and learning strategies as well as their social background and the language spoken at home - giving valuable implications for educational policy.
The study is available from OECD's online bookshop or from any bookshop via the ISBN 9264023607. |
