| Summary: | The Democratic Republic of the Congo
(DRC) has focused on increasing student learning outcomes by
improving the quality of education in the country. An
effective student assessment system is an important
component to improving education quality and learning
outcomes as it provides the necessary information to meet
stakeholders’ decision-making needs. In order to gain a
better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of its
existing assessment system, DRC decided to benchmark this
system using standardized tools developed under The World
Bank’s Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER)
program. SABER is an evidence-based program to help
countries systematically examine and strengthen the
performance of different aspects of their education systems.
The key policy areas for this students assessment are as
follows: (i) Classroom Assessment; (ii) Examinations; (iii)
National Large-Scale Assessment (NLSA); and (iv)
International Large-Scale Assessment (ILSA). |
