Cypriot Children’s Educational Challenges in Key Subjects
Cypriot children face educational challenges in key subjects as evidenced by the 2022 PISA report. They scored below the EU average in mathematics (418), science (411), and reading (381). These scores indicate a need for systemic improvement in Cyprus’s education system to enhance students’ competencies in these crucial areas. The education ministry has recognized this need and outlined strategies for improvement, including the development of core competencies, the integration of technology, and aligning educational objectives with the needs of the labor market.
