TOKYO, Dec 06 (News On Japan) - The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has published the results of a learning achievement survey conducted in 2022, targeting 15-year-olds across 81 countries and regions.
Japan achieved its highest-ever ranking of 3rd in 'Reading Comprehension'.
Japan also maintained its position at the top international level with a 2nd place in 'Scientific Application Skills' and 5th in 'Mathematical Application Skills'.
The OECD suggests that factors such as Japan's comparatively shorter school closures during the COVID-19 pandemic may have influenced the results.
