| Summary: | The United Arab Emirates 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 of efforts to
improve 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, United Arab Emirates decided to
benchmark this system using standardized tools developed
under The World Bank’sSystems 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 goal of SABER-Student Assessment is to promote stronger
assessment systems that contribute to improved education
quality and learning for all. |
