“We want to include attention to values and attitudes in subject teaching. We must establish good working conditions for teachers and enable support where it is needed,” said Prof. Zbigniew Marciniak, chairperson of the Council for Monitoring the Implementation of Education Reform.
The Educational Research Institute (IBE PIB) invites all interested persons to participate in the consultations on the first version of the post-primary school graduate profile. The document was developed based on interviews with representatives of schools, higher education institutions and employers from 15 voivodeships.
The event brought together experts in teaching and assessment, school directors, and teachers who discussed the issue of assessment in Polish schools through lectures, discussions, and conversations.
In our rapidly changing world, adult skills are becoming a key resource—both for individual career opportunities and for the economy as a whole. We present a thematic report entitled ‘Skills in the Polish labour market’, which was based on data from the PIAAC 2023 Survey of Adult Skills conducted in Poland by the Educational Research Institute. The report addresses the relationship between skills and the labour market.
The SSES survey is conducted by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and aims to assess the level of social and emotional skills of school-age children, as well as to identify factors particularly important in the development of these skills.
The perspective of data resources, citizens and systemic solutions – these were the three thematic areas forming the basis for discussions about skills during the conference, which brought together experts from education, the labour market and digitalisation. The focus was on people – their development and related needs.
The world around us is a system of interconnections. Natural sciences are the key to telling children about the world and helping them understand it in a comprehensive way. That is why we propose to increase the total number of hours of these subjects in primary school. However, we have distributed them more evenly so as not to overload the students with hours spent at school.
Less theory – more practice, a modern approach to education, more freedom and better support for teachers – these are some of the conclusions drawn from the summary of surveys for school staffs and consultations conducted by IBE PIB.
We are delighted to announce the upcoming conference, "Let's Make Inclusion Happen! Inclusive Education for a Fair, Resilient, and Competitive EU"; scheduled from 17th to 18th March 2025 at the Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw. This event is a pivotal component of Poland's Presidency of the Council of the European Union, reflecting our commitment to advancing High-Quality Inclusive Education (HQIE) across Europe.
