Volume II, along with volumes I and III, provides the initial results from OECD’s PISA 2018. PISA is a triennial survey of the knowledge and skills of 15-year-olds near the end of their compulsory schooling. The major focus of the 2018 assessment was reading, with a secondary focus on mathematics and science. Volume II examines gender differences in student performance, and the links between students’ socioeconomic status and immigrant background, on the one hand, and student performance and well-being, on the other.
