Supplementary notes

The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) "assesses the extent to which 15‑year‑old students near the end of their compulsory education have acquired the knowledge and skills that are essential for full participation in modern societies." In 2018, over 600 thousand 15-year-olds from 79 OECD countries took part in the survey, including 7,608 from Russia. In 2015, over 536 thousand schoolchildren participated from 70 countries, including 6,036 from Russia.

The figures for 2015 were obtained from the previous report by the source.
