As part of the Centre's work in monitoring the outcomes of education, national surveys of achievement at primary level have been carried out in association with the Department of Education and Science. The surveys have been conducted in the areas of English (reading), Irish (reading and oral language), and Mathematics. It is planned to extend the range of assessments to include other areas of the curriculum in future years.

In 2009, the Centre will conduct National Assessments of English reading and mathematics among Second and Sixth class pupils.  Click here for information about the National Assessment of English Reading, or here for information about the National Assessment of Mathematics Achievement.
