This report describes the school experiences and attitudes of Fourth Class and Second Year students in Ireland. Drawing on data from the 2023 cycle of the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), it delves into the experiences of students in relation to their attendance at school, sense of belonging, and experiences of bullying. Also discussed in the report are students’ attitudes towards mathematics and science; in particular, the extent to which students like learning, feel confident, and value mathematics and science. A key feature of this report is that it examines trends in students’ experiences and attitudes across the three most recent cycles of TIMSS (2015, 2019 and 2023). The findings point towards some noteworthy changes in Irish students’ experiences and attitudes over time. Finally, some conclusions and implications for policymakers in Ireland are outlined.
