Wales again posts worst Pisa results among UK nations — what the new government should do
According to Pisa 2025, Wales again ranked last among the UK nations in reading, maths and science: 15-year-old Welsh pupils lag behind their English peers by roughly two years of schooling. Causes under discussion include weak school accountability, the new 'free' curriculum, and a fragmented system of 22 local councils. The new Plaid Cymru government promises refinements but not a dismantling of the reform.
