Fantastic news: "NSW 15 year olds rank amongst the best in the world in literacy, according to the latest (2006) OECD's Program for International Student Assessment (PISA). Only Finland significantly did better than NSW ..."
"Only Finland significantly did better ..."???
Surely that should be "Significantly, only Finland did better ..."; or possibly "Only Finland did significantly better ..."?
If you listen very carefully, you can hear the literarti letting out a global sigh. Irony, thy name be formal reporting on literacy levels.
The full report (2010-2011) was available online at the time of this entry. Enjoy.
