This chapter contains snapshots of education policy developments in 26 OECD countries. Designed for policy makers, analysts and practitioners, these snapshots bring together the priorities and policy actions outlined in Chapters 2-5, contextualised with additional information relevant to policy ecosystems, as well as selected additional education policies of potential interest to other countries. The information is drawn mainly from country responses to the Education Policy Outlook National Surveys for Comparative Policy Analysis in 2013 and 2016-17, Education Policy Outlook Country Profiles, and OECD comparative and country-specific analysis and statistics on education systems. The snapshots are based on the analytical framework developed for the Education Policy Outlook, with special attention to equity and quality and preparing students for the future. The reforms presented were generally introduced between 2008 and 2017.
