Education: Woidke is not aiming for a Pisa Prime Minister’s Conference

Brandenburg’s head of government Dietmar Woidke (SPD), after the poor results of German students in the Pisa study, sees the education ministers first in line. “The current Pisa results and thus the status of the education system at schools in Germany must first be seriously discussed at the level of the responsible state departments in conjunction with the KMK,” said government spokesman Florian Engels to the German Press Agency in Potsdam.

In the study, 15/16-year-olds from Germany achieved the lowest performance scores in reading, mathematics and natural sciences that were ever measured for Germany as part of Pisa. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) study, most recently published on Tuesday, compares performance in developed countries.

The chairman of the Bundestag Education Committee, Kai Gehring (Greens), had called for a special MPK of the heads of government of the federal states because of the poor results. He considers the poor educational results to be a warning sign. Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD) also expressed concern about the disastrous results.
