Analysis of European core indicators on education

In the EU Integration Indicators EUROSTAT PILOT study the following indicators were withheld with regard to education:

-Share of low-achieving 15-year-olds in reading, mathematics and science (Source: OECD PISA)

-Highest educational attainment (Source: EU Labour Force Survey)

-Share of 30–34-year-olds with tertiary educational attainment (Source: EU Labour Force Survey)

-Share of early leavers from education and training (Source: EU Labour Force Survey)

Caveat: PISA nor LFS designed to study migrant educational integration

Proportion all pupils in PISA-samples of EU-countries not reaching the minimal level two for reading (PISA 2009)

Proportion all pupils in PISA-samples not reaching the minimal level two for reading and proportion of GDP spent on education in 2009

Proportion all pupils in PISA-samples not reaching the minimal level two for reading and the Hutchens index for social segregation (calculated on PISA 2009 data)
