This workshop will be held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands on the 18th and 19th of May 2010.

The overall purpose of the conference is to exhange knowledge and experiences in using student achievement data (attainment, progress, social performance) for school inspections.

The meeting focuses on two key questions:

What information on student achievement is available for school inspections?
How can this information be used for inspections?

The questions will be answered for countries with standardised information available on student achievement data (test scores, exams, drop out rates), as well as for countries where these student data have to be collected and assessed during an inspection visit.
