Review paper by Australia
In-depth review of education statistics
The Bureau reviewed education statistics in November 2011, and noted that guidelines are needed for the measurement of e-learning, which is a relevant topic in several countries. Good practices should also be shared on the integration of different data sources.
Outcome of the review
Several countries and international organizations expressed interest in participating in a possible Task Force on measuring e-learning and expressed readiness to share good practices in integrating data on education, but did not volunteer to lead the work for the moment. The start of these activities was put on hold until a later date.
Related initiatives
The United Nations Statistical Commission (UNSC) asked the UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) to report on education statistics in 2012. The report was sent to the UNSC for information in 2013.
