Ireland has shown a strong commitment to addressing child poverty and improving outcomes for children and young people. Responding to the needs of children and young people, particularly those most vulnerable, requires integrated policies and services. This report is part of a joint project between the OECD and the European Commission to strengthen policy and governance arrangements for tackling child poverty and improving outcomes for children and young people based on a whole-of-government approach. The report assesses recent policy, institutional and legislative developments in Ireland and compares outcomes for children and young people with those in other EU and OECD countries. It finds that despite progress, Ireland still has room for improvement on child poverty reduction, and more can be done to address the trust gap between young people in Ireland and their government. The report recommends Ireland to adopt measures to enhance inter-departmental and inter-agency co-operation, strengthen evidence-informed approaches, reinforce policy monitoring tools, and improve accountability mechanisms. It also recommends measures to support the effective implementation of Young Ireland, the National Policy Framework for Children and Young People (2023-28), and to ensure policy coherence.

The education system in Ireland, which compares favorably with that of other industrialized countries, has been under pressure throughout the past 30 years. The system has had to expand post-school education and training provisions at great speed to cope with a substantial demand for university places, to create a non-university sector catering specifically to the needs of an economy in the throes of modernization, and to allocate large amounts for capital investment despite commanding fewer resources than most other Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. A Ireland's educational policies reveals the significant progress that has been achieved since the 1960s. Current issues and problems include the consequences of rapid social and economic change. Several underlying constraints have weighed on the education system, such as the lack (at least until recently) of a purposeful central authority having the political will, the administrative capacity, and the requisite financial resources to formulate and implement reforms; the presence of powerful interest groups outside the government that have to be accommodated; and the structural complexity of the system itself. This three-part report is devoted to the specific problem of teacher supply and training and the priority attached to it. Part 1, the Examiner's Report, describes and discusses the Irish education system, raises issues, and identifies policy options. Part 2 provides a summary record of the review meeting that took place during the proceedings of the Education Committee when the Irish Delegation, led by the Minister of Education, Mary O'Rourke, replied to detailed questions from the examiners and Committee members. Part 3 summarizes the authoritative Background Report prepared by the national authorities in advance of the examiners' visit to Ireland. A number of tables and diagrams are included throughout the report. (CB)

This book finds that, in many ways, Northern Ireland stands out internationally with its thoughtfully designed evaluation and assessment framework. The major components are well developed, in particular policies for student assessment, school evaluation and school system evaluation. It has been developed using the majority of key design principles recommended by the OECD. The approach to evaluation and assessment combines: central control over policy development and standard setting; transparency over procedures and reporting of results; an increasing responsibility for the implementation of evaluation and assessment among teachers and schools; and central mechanisms to monitor the effectiveness of implementation. For example, while schools and their Boards of Governors are accountable for their educational quality and are accountable to their communities, school development planning processes are also monitored as part of external school evaluation by a central inspectorate. Teachers play a central role in student assessment and their assessment of pupil progress against central standards is moderated by a central agency which engages working teachers in the process. Teachers in primary schools are offered central diagnostic tests to support their assessment of pupil progress. Only teacher appraisal remains entirely school based, but there is a set of common competence standards for teachers.
