Measurement framework for national key performance measures

The framework provides agreed performance measures and a schedule for reporting to achieve the Australian national education goals.

The core of the Framework is a schedule setting out an agreed assessment and reporting cycle for the period 2004-2012 in the following priority areas, comparable by State and Territory, and using Key Performance Measures as the basis for reporting: 1) literacy, 2) numeracy, 3) science, 4) civics and citizenship education, 5) information and communication technology, 6) vocational education and training in schools and 7) participation and attainment.

This document can serve as a regional model for an agreed national framework for measuring student performance that incorporates international benchmarks in Maths and Science.
