General Note In 2008, all students in [years 3, 5, 7 and 9] have been subjected to hastily developed standardised tests, which are educationally problematic. Globally, standardised tests in education have become high stakes. Standardised tests perform an accountability function of serving the neo-liberal aims of shrinking the allocation from the public purse to education whilst consolidating centralised control of curriculum and pedagogy. - From Introduction, p. 5.
