PISA Governing Board

Send

Each OECD country participating in PISA has a representative on the PISA Governing Board, appointed by the country’s education ministry. Each partner economy participating in PISA has an observer on the board, appointed by the country’s education ministry. The chair of the PISA Governing Board is chosen by the Board itself.

Guided by the OECD’s education objectives, the Board determines the policy priorities for PISA and makes sure that these are respected during the implementation of each PISA survey.
