An analysis of recent international PISA test results reveals a grim picture for Israel's education system, indicating that no student is immune to its poor performance. The findings, published last September after attempts by Education Minister Yoav Kisch to delay the release and obscure the data, show a significant decline in student achievement across mathematics, science, and reading. Israel has dropped dozens of points in all tested areas, reaching its lowest-ever performance level. This decline represents one of the largest drops in the history of the PISA assessments.
