PISA 2022 Results - Volume I - The State of Learning and Equity in Education

Aug 22, 2026

PISA 2022 investigates how learning outcomes, well-being, and equity evolved as countries continued to face lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Covering nearly 700,000 students across OECD member and partner economies, the report shows that while many systems maintained performance in mathematics compared with PISA 2018, overall results declined on average across the OECD. It also links progress toward universal secondary education with equality of opportunity and describes how socioeconomic status remains a key predictor alongside documented patterns of socio-economic fairness.

Preface In 2022, as countries were still dealing with the lingering impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, nearly 700 000 students from 81 OECD Member and partner economies, representing 29 million across the world, took the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) test. It makes 2022 PISA the first large-scale study to collect data on student performance, well-being, and equity before and after the COVID-19 disruptions. The report finds that in spite of the challenging circumstances, 31 countries and economies managed to at least maintain their performance in mathematics since PISA 2018. Among these, Australia*, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and Switzerland maintained or further raised already high levels of student performance, with scores ranging from 487 to 575 points (OECD average 472) . These systems showed common features including shorter school closures, fewer obstacles to remote learning, and continuing teachers’ and parental support, which can further offer insights and indications of broader best practices to address future crises.
