STEM
The initial results from the latest survey, carried out in 2023, were published late last year and made for reassuring reading, showing that pupils in England were performing well above the average in maths and science. It was the second batch of data, released in March 2025, that caused ripples in the educational world and beyond. Its findings showed that boys in England were doing far better in STEM subjects than girls, particularly in year 9, where the gap between boys and girls in maths was wider than for any other country taking part in the research.
