TIMSS 2019 Grade 4 Repeat Grade 6

The TIMSS 2019 results regarding the average level of performance in mathematics and science of the Flemish 4th grade students were below expectations. Both science and mathematics recorded a significant drop down from the 2015 level. Further insight is desirable in order to inform educational policies and practices to turn the tide. TIMSS 2019-R will administer tests to the same sample of schools and students to determine the learning gains between 4th and 6th grade. Questionnaires will be administered to students, 5th and 6th grade teachers, and school administrators to identify the correlation of 6th grade results and learning gains with a number of context variables. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on effective learning time (quantitative and qualitative) mathematics and science are also examined.
