Education Today 2010: The OECD Perspective

Organised into eight chapters, this report examines early childhood education, schooling, transitions beyond initial education, higher education, adult learning, outcomes and returns, equity, and innovation. 

What does the OECD have to say about the state of education today? 
What are the main OECD messages on early childhood education, teacher policies and tertiary education? 
What about student performance, educational spending and equity in education?

The chapters are structured around key findings and policy directions emerging from recent OECD educational analyses. Each entry highlights the main message in a concise and accessible way, with a brief explanation and reference to the original OECD source.
