„49 % der Schülerinnen und Schüler mit Migrationshintergrund haben nach PISA-Definition einen niedrigen soziökonomischen Status, 75 % sprechen zu Hause eine andere Sprache als Deutsch. […] Nach statistischer Bereinigung des sozioökonomischen Hintergrunds verringert sich der Abstand der beiden Gruppen bei der Mathematik-Kompetenz von 58 auf 25 Punkte. Wird darüber hinaus der Einfluss einer nichtdeutschen Umgangssprache berücksichtigt, beträgt der Unterschied nur noch 5 Punkte und ist somit nicht mehr signifikant. Sprache und soziale Herkunft sind also die dominanten Faktoren und nicht der „bloße“ Migrationshintergrund. Ein ähnliches Bild zeigt sich bei der Lesekompetenz. Hier erreichen Schülerinnen und Schüler mit Migrationshintergrund einen um 65 Punkte niedrigeren Wert. Nach Bereinigung des sozioökonomischen Hintergrunds verringert sich der Abstand auf 30 Punkte. Eine andere Umgangssprache als Deutsch ist für die Differenz von weiteren 25 Punkten verantwortlich.“

„Mit im Durchschnitt mehr als 55 Punkten ist der Vorsprung der Schüler*innen ohne Migrationshintergrund in Mathematik vor Berücksichtigung der anderen Hintergrundfaktoren in sieben europäischen Ländern – Belgien, Deutschland, Finnland, den Niederlanden, Österreich, Schweden und Slowenien – am größten. Dieser beträchtliche Abstand erklärt sich zum Teil aus sozioökonomischen Unterschieden […] Wird diesen Unterschieden Rechnung getragen, verringert sich der Migrationseffekt in Belgien, den Niederlanden, Österreich und Slowenien um mehr als die Hälfte und in Deutschland, Finnland und Schweden um mehr als ein Drittel. […] Der verbleibende Leistungsabstand kann großenteils auf Sprachbarrieren zurückgeführt werden.

„Schüler*innen, die digitale Geräte bis zu einer Stunde pro Tag zum Lernen in der Schule nutzen, erzielten in Mathematik im OECD-Durchschnitt 24 Punkte mehr als Schüler*innen, die digitale Geräte nicht zu diesem Zweck verwenden. Auch nach Berücksichtigung des sozioökomischen Profils der Schüler*innen und der Schulen bleibt noch ein Vorsprung von 14 Punkten. […] Eine übermäßige und/oder schlechte Nutzung digitaler Geräte scheint die Leistungen jedoch zu beeinträchtigen.

„The striking stability in the SES gradients at age 6-8 and those at age 15 reported in PISA suggest that reducing inequalities prior to school entry may have far-reaching effects on social mobility. […] However, the case study of France reminds us that a note of caution is needed about focusing attention exclusively on environments in the early years. The strong French SES gradient in PISA suggests that the benefits for equality of its world-leading preschool system are completely eroded over the course of primary and lower secondary schooling, such that it ends up with an internationally high gradient by age 15, with a level similar to that in Germany.“

„PISA 2022 results highlight the importance of finding effective ways to limit the distraction caused by using digital devices in class. The frequency with which students become distracted by other students who are using digital devices in class is among the disciplinary aspects that shows the strongest association with mathematics performance.“
OECD (Hrsg.), PISA 2022 Results, Vol.II. Learning During – and From – Disruption (2023), S. 100.

„Finding effective ways to limit distractions is also important for student well-being. For example, in all countries/economies students who perceived the climate in their mathematics lessons to be less disruptive were less anxious towards mathematics.“

„Ability grouping in school involves placing students into different classrooms or in small instructional groups in a class based on the students’ initial achievement or skill levels. Some research has shown that ability grouping can have a positive impact on the achievement of elementary school pupils, especially when there is mobility and flexibility in group allocations and when such grouping involves only specific subjects. […] On average across OECD countries in 2022, almost 4 in 10 students attended schools where students are grouped by ability into different classes for all subjects (7 %) or some subjects (31 %). The greatest incidence of this kind of grouping was observed in Ireland, Israel, Malta and the United Kingdom.

„Many schools have introduced guidelines addressing the problem of distraction when students use digital devices in school. The content and design of such rules, as well as the capacity to enforce them, determine their effectiveness. When a school’s written statements or rules are too general, imprecise or lenient, they are unlikely to benefit teaching and learning with digital devices. Schools and teachers also need the time and capacity to enforce such rules. […] On average across OECD countries, 30 % of students in schools where the use of cell phones is banned reported using a smartphone several times a day, and 21 % reported using one every day or almost every day at school. These data show that cell phone bans are not always effectively enforced.“

„Students who spend up to one hour per day on digital devices for learning activities in school scored 24 points higher in mathematics than students who spend no time on such devices, on average across OECD countries. Even after accounting for students’ and schools’ socio-economic profile, the former group of students scored 14 points higher. […] However, the relationship becomes negative when students spend more than one hour per day on digital devices for learning in school.“

„When there are classroom disciplinary problems, boys seem to be more disturbed by this than girls are. In fact, the more the average school teacher perceives there are disciplinary issues, the greater the difference in PISA reading scores between girls and boys within schools – favouring girls. Perhaps boys are more affected by deteriorated learning conditions because they are exposed to greater peer pressure than girls. It is also more likely that boys are the students disturbing lessons. Overall, boys seem to be less able than girls to stay focused on their schoolwork when there are disciplinary issues in the school.“

„Parents play a crucial role in conveying positive attitudes towards reading at home beginning in a child’s early years. The day-to-day activities that parents undertake are highly correlated with children’s early learning and social-emotional development. Examples of these include reading to them almost every day when they are children and providing them with books. Furthermore, PISA data suggests that parents who are observed reading or who endorse the view that reading is pleasurable are associated with children’s reading activities at home, reading motivation and achievement.“
OECD (Hrsg.), 21st-Century Readers (2021), S. 88.

„In PISA 2018, girls outperformed boys in reading by 25 points after accounting for students’ socio-economic backgrounds. However, boys’ average index of perception of the difficulty of the PISA test was significantly lower than girls, meaning boys reported that they felt the test was easier than what girls reported. […] Students’ perceptions of how good (or bad) they are at reading, and more generally, how competent they are, have important ramifications. They influence how well students motivate themselves, set goals and persevere in the face of difficulties. These are critical qualities for improving reading skills, which require persistent practice.“

„Findings from PISA 2015 indicate that the stratification of academic achievement by SES persist regardless of length of exposure to ECEC programmes. In other words, these results indicate that attendance in ECEC does not lead to reduce performance gap in later academic outcomes between advantaged and disadvantaged students. What is more, even the longest duration of ECEC attendance, i.e. students starting as early as ages one or two, does not achieve any perceivable decrease in the performance gap between the two groups of students.“

„Since Iceland is in the group of countries where immigrants are either highly skilled or come from high-income countries, socio-economic background is less a factor in immigrant children’s school performance, and its impact has even been decreasing in recent years. However, the gap in reading performance between immigrant students and non-immigrant students in the PISA is large.“

„Research evidence shows that there are clear benefits for children who participate in ECEC (Anm.: ECEC = Early childhood education and care) in terms of their overall development and, more specifically, their academic performance. This finding is especially valid for disadvantaged students. […] Nevertheless, data from the EU-SILC Survey and PISA 2018 reveal that children from disadvantaged families participate less in ECEC.“

„A longitudinal study run on 3 000 children in Singapore found that extreme video game use and problems such as social phobia, attention deficit disorder, anxiety and depression often occur together and are likely to be mutually reinforcing. Results from the PISA study show that extreme use of the Internet among children is associated with lower life satisfaction and school results, even when controlling for socio-economic backgrounds.“
OECD (Hrsg.), How's Life in the Digital Age (2019), S. 60.

„Extreme Internet use among young people is common in OECD countries. On average, 24 % of 15-year-olds spend more than 6 hours a day on the Internet on weekend days, and a figure that is as high as 43 % in Chile and 37 % in the United Kingdom. Culture may play a role in the extent to which children spend long periods of time online, with the lowest share of extreme users among children in Japan and Korea. The level of educational achievement of parents also seem to be associated with extreme Internet use, with children of highly educated parents less likely to be extreme Internet users in most countries.“

„The potential of small classes for creating a supportive learning environment is visible in PISA 2015 data: on average across OECD countries, and according to students’ reports, science teachers with smaller class sizes are more likely to adapt their lessons to the needs and knowledge of their students than science teachers in schools with larger class sizes. In addition, in almost every OECD country, students whose science teachers adapt more frequently their teaching outperform academically students whose teachers adapt their teaching less frequently, even after accounting for students’ and schools’ socio-economic profile.“

„Comparatively low salaries are frequently regarded as one of the factors contributing to teacher shortages and a lack of qualified candidates. Across OECD countries, 15-year-old students in countries with higher teacher salaries are more likely to expect going into a teaching career and several countries in which teachers’ salaries were significantly lower than those of similarly educated workers have considered reducing this gap to attract more high-calibre candidates to the profession.“
OECD (Hrsg.), Working and Learning Together (2019), S. 135.

„Data from PISA 2015, for example, show that 15-year-old students’ expectations to become teachers were more gender-balanced in countries with higher teachers’ salaries. […] As labour market opportunities for women expand, school systems may struggle to continue attracting the most talented women to the teaching profession at current salary levels.“

„PISA 2015 asked students about the teaching practices they are exposed to at school. […] The findings emphasise the role of a positive school climate in the success of enquiry-based science activities. Enquiry-based science activities are associated with lower scores in science, especially among students who attend disorderly science classes; but this negative association is weakened when students attend disciplined science lessons. The lack of discipline in a classroom makes it more difficult for teachers to organise enquiry-based activities and, in turn, reduces the effectiveness of this practice.“

„Greater exposure to teacher-directed science instruction is positively associated with science performance in almost all countries, even after accounting for student socio-demographic characteristics, and observed and unobserved school features, such as whether the school is public or private, and how it is funded.

Südkorea: „Approximately half the 2012 PISA participants reported receiving private tutoring, often focused on test preparation. Overall, expenditures on private tutoring added 2.6 % of gross domestic product to the government’s contribution of 3.5 % toward education. One plausible interpretation of Korea’s and other East Asian jurisdictions’ ILSA (Anm.: International Large-Scale Education Assessments) results is that they are not a result of the public education systems but rather this substantial private investment.“

„Between 2012 and 2015, the time that 15-year-olds reported spending on the Internet increased from 21 to 29 hours per week, on average across OECD countries. […] In every school system, students who reported using the Internet more frequently scored lower in science than students who reported using the Internet less frequently. However, on average across OECD countries, 15-year-olds who used the Internet moderately scored above students who never used the Internet or who used it more intensively.“

„Using the Internet intensively — more than 6 hours per day — is also associated with less satisfaction with life, arriving late for school and lower education expectations, according to the OECD report PISA 2015 Results: Students’ Well-Being.
