Centre for Curriculum, Pedagogy and Policy seminar series: Professor Paul Andrews, Stockholm University

For the first Centre for Curriculum, Pedagogy and Policy seminar of the academic year, we welcome Professor Paul Andrews from Stockholm University.

Paul is a colleague of Judy Sayers (CCPP) on the Foundational Number Sense (FoNS) project, and specialises in comparative mathematics education research.

He will present a series of little known facts about PISA, its processes and results, challenging its repeated claim that it “has become the world’s premier yardstick for evaluating the quality, equity and efficiency of school systems” (OECD, 2013, p.3, OECD, 2016, p.3).
