Use and Impact of TIMSS

Spain participated in TIMSS 1995 and TIMSS 2011.

Following TIMSS 2011, in Grade 4, the results of Spain and several of its regions in mathematics, science, and reading have allowed comparisons at the international level.

Educational reform, implemented from the 2014–2015 course (under the Organic Law on Education), included diagnostic assessment of linguistic communication and mathematics competencies in Grade 3 and of linguistic communication, mathematics, and science in Grade 6. The development of these assessment frameworks have counted significantly on the help of experts from IEA.
