ACER has produced a compelling policy brief to address a critical challenge in education: ensuring foundational literacy and numeracy for all students in the Asia-Pacific region.

In 2024, educators made great use of the PAT Teaching Resource Centre. Which tools did they use the most? We share them with you in this round up.

In these increasingly competitive awards, 1,077 students from around Australia entered the Literacy and Numeracy competition in terms 3 and 4 in 2024. ACER is pleased to award 4 school category winners and celebrates all the participants. 

How does a system make data accessible and actionable? Jarrod Carter and Lisa Karanicolou from Catholic Education South Australia explore practical ways that a system-wide approach to data can transform teaching and learning.

ACER Research Fellow Jonathan Heard explains how parents can find out more about their child's report in this article for The Conversation.

Professor Bill Lucas will share new approaches to critical and creative thinking education at Research Conference 2025 in February.
