Virtual launch event 7 September: First results from the OECD Survey on Social and Emotional Skills

Salto de línea Educators everywhere are increasingly recognising the significant role that social and emotional skills play in preparing students for life in a complex modern world, as well as for the modern workplace. But which of these skills has the strongest link with students’ learning and social outcomes? Does this vary across different age groups? And how can these skills be measured?

To help countries tackle this developing branch of education, the OECD has conducted the first ever international comparative survey on social and emotional skills, aiming to identify and assess the conditions and practices that foster or hinder the development of such skills for 10- and 15-year-old students. Join Andreas Schleicher, OECD Director for Education and Skills, as he presents the findings from the survey, followed by a panel discussion with leading education experts.
