Odón Elorza deeply concerned over children's poor academic performance
The Basque Country records its worst PISA results, ahead of only Ceuta and Melilla. The OECD warns about children's low academic performance.
English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published
The results of the PISA report in the Basque Country are worrying, placing the region below the average and above only Ceuta and Melilla, raising alarm bells about the education system.
## The PISA blow for the Basque Country
Alarm bells are ringing loudly in Basque society. The latest results of the **PISA** report (Programme for International Student Assessment) have revealed a worrying decline in the academic performance of children and young people in the **Basque Country**. The figures are clear: the region has recorded its worst historical results in this international assessment, finding itself in a position that calls for reflection and immediate action.
## Numbers that don't lie
The report, produced by the **OECD**, places the Basque Country in a delicate position, ahead of only the autonomous cities of **Ceuta** and **Melilla**. This figure alone is an indicator of the scale of the problem. Performance in key skills such as reading, mathematics and science has declined, which translates into future generations being less prepared to face the challenges of an increasingly complex and competitive world.
## What does the OECD say and why does it matter?
The **OECD** not only presents the data, but also offers analysis and theories about the causes and possible solutions. Poor academic performance is not just a matter of statistics; it has direct implications for the region's economic and social future. A population with a lower level of education faces greater difficulties in entering the labour market, less capacity for innovation and, in short, less development potential. Tackling this problem is an investment in the future.
