  2. Making Europe the world‘s premier knowledge economy by 2010. Using education as a lever to compete by working smarter, rather than working harder or cheaper.

  3. Where are the drivers of the knowledge economy in education? Knowledge Connectiveness Flexibility Innovation

  4. Delivering high level qualifications. A world of change.

  5. Growth in university-level qualificationsApproximated by the percentage of persons with ISCED 5A/6 qualfication in the age groups 55-64, 45-55, 45-44 und 25-34 years (2003) 2 3 10 15 23 16 14 9 21 1 A1.3a

  7. From institutions to qualificationsTertiary-type A graduation rates, by duration (2003) %

  8. A moving targetSum of net entry rates into tertiary education for single year of age (2003) % Current graduation rate

  9. Mobilising resources Who pays for education and who benefits ?

  10. Economies and ideologies … in Austria, Germany, Denmark and Norway private sources contribute a much larger share of the costs of early childhood education and care than for tertiary education Investment in high-level qualificationsExpenditure on tertiary educational institutions as a percentage of GDP (2002) B2.1

  11. Annual expenditure per studenton educational institutions, in equivalent US dollars converted using PPPs

  12. Where do high skills pay?Distribution of 25-64-year-olds by level of earnings EU United States

  13. The returns on high level qualificationsPrivate internal rates of return (RoR) for an individual obtaining a university-level degree (ISCED 5/6) from an upper secondary and post-secondary non-tertiary level of education (ISCED 3/4), MALES

  14. The driving forces of GDP per capita growthAverage annual percentage change (1990-2000) • But in almost all countries, the biggest contribution came from increased labour productivity • Ireland, Korea, Mexico and Turkey were the only countries where demography made a significant positive impact on GDP per capita growth… • Increases in employment rates made a big contribution to growth in some countries But where does labour productivity growth come from… …and why does it vary so much across countries? …in others it is beginning to act as a slight drag on growth • While declines in employment rates reduced growth in others

  15. Enhancements in human capital contribute to labour productivity growthAverage annual percentage change (1990-2000)

  16. Making lifelong learning a reality. For all.

  17. Participation of the labour force in non-formal job-related continuing education and training (2003) %

  18. Participation of the labour force in non-formal job-related continuing education and training (2003) %

  20. Who can afford these productivity differentials ? How school performance varies .

  21. Consistency in quality standardsVariation in the performance of 15-year-olds in mathematics Variation of performance within schools Variation of performance between schools 14 12 1 11 5 OECD (2004), Learning for tomorrow’s world: First results from PISA 2003, Table 4.1a, p.383.

  22. Using the potential. Equality in outcomes and equity in opportunities.

  23. School performance and schools’ socio-economic background - Germany Student performance PISA Index of social background Disadvantage Advantage Student performance and student SES within schools School performance and school SES Student performance and student SES School proportional to size Figure 4.13

  25. Making education a knowledge rich profession

  26. One challenge – different approaches The future of education systems needs to be “knowledge rich” Informed professional judgement, the teacher as a “knowledge worker” Informed prescription National prescription Professional judgement Uninformed prescription, teachers implement curricula Uninformed professional judgement The tradition of education systems has been “knowledge poor”
