Israeli scores drop in science and math
The Israeli educational system and the Ministry of Education recorded their lowest scores ever on the international PISA tests, with Israel ranking at the bottom of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in reading, mathematics, and science. There has been a significant decline in students' performance over recent years. Reading scores have dropped by 38 points to their lowest level since 2006, while science has declined by 23 points and mathematics by 25 points, reflecting a major collapse in academic achievement. This decline is the largest in Israel's history and follows a continuous downturn after a relatively stable performance until 2022. It is exacerbated by students losing essential skills in comprehension and scientific thinking, despite government promises and ambitious educational programs.
