Ministrul Educației explică rezultatele slabe la testele PISA 2025: „Avem multe de recuperat. Dar sunt soluții”

Romania's performance in the PISA 2025 tests is concerning, with nearly half of students failing to meet minimum math standards. Education Minister Mihai Dimian highlights a decline in academic rigor during middle school as a key issue. He notes that 52% of students scored below level 2 in math, indicating functional illiteracy. Dimian emphasizes the difference between national assessments and PISA, which measures real-world application of knowledge. He acknowledges a general decline in scores among OECD countries, with Romania's results mirroring this trend. The minister plans to outline measures for improving student performance, stressing the need for a realistic approach to education reform.
