EDUCATION POLICY OUTLOOK IN AUSTRALIA

This policy profile on education in Australia is part of the Education Policy Outlook series, which presents comparative analysis of education policies and reforms across OECD countries. Building on the OECD’s substantial comparative and sectoral policy knowledge base, the series offers a comparative outlook on education policy.

This country policy profile is an update of the first policy profile of Australia and provides: analysis of the educational context, strengths, challenges and policies; analysis of international trends; insight into policies and reforms on selected topics in Australia and other education systems; and policy pointers to inform possible future action.

It is an opportunity to consider developments in the education system, including areas of progress and areas for ongoing attention, viewed from the perspective of the OECD through synthetic, evidence-based and comparable analysis.
