Charu Malhotra, Co-founder and Managing Director, Primus Partners, and Shruti Sharma, formerly with the International Baccalaureate and the Tony Blair Institute, shares their opinion on India’s potential withdrawal from PISA 2025. They highlights that participation in global assessments like PISA is not about rankings alone, but about gaining an objective evaluation of domestic education systems. With the right environment, Indian students can apply conceptual understanding to real-life problems, and insights from PISA can guide necessary reforms to strengthen learning outcomes.
