Abstract

ACER is working with partners to improve quality and equity in learning in the Pacific Islands.

Students in the Pacific Islands face challenges to their learning. Recent research has shown that almost half of Year 4 and 6 students are not meeting minimum proficiency levels in reading. Those from disadvantaged backgrounds are at greater risk of lower learning outcomes.
