Vision 2015: Year one achievements in Nationwide’s education system
Initiated in 2006, the objective of Vision 2015 is to provide a world-class public education for all students in Nationwide. Results released from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) are a factual testament to how urgent the need for reform is in our schools.
