Abstract

In providing a summary and analysis of the preceding 11 chapters, this chapter illustrates the diversity of responses within European Union Member States to the educational challenges and opportunities that the Member States have encountered as a result of cross-national achievement surveys. As described in this chapter, concerns regarding cross-national achievement surveys remain. Nevertheless, the brief summaries in this chapter also highlight the potential of these surveys to positively affect and influence education policy within the EU. One consistent theme is that these surveys have resulted in a much greater focus on educational equity for specific subpopulations of students within Member States. The analysis of the ongoing implementation and use of cross-national achievement surveys in the EU highlights that future editions of such surveys will probably need to find ways to be even more responsive to national efforts to positively affect the education and well-being of young people throughout the EU.
