As part of the ERC's work in monitoring the outcomes of education, the Centre carries out national surveys of achievement at primary level on behalf of the Department of Education and Skills.  In 2009, the ERC conducted National Assessments of English Reading and Mathematics (NA 2009) among Second and Sixth class pupils.  They same assessments were implemented at the same class levels in a representative sample of Irish-medium schools in 2010. Also, contextual data was collected in questionnaires completed by pupils, parents, class teachers, and principals.
