The Southeast Asia Primary Learning Metrics Program: Thinking Globally in a Regional Context

The purpose of this case study is to share information on SEA-PLM regional- and country-level capacity development activities, which are a defining feature of the SEA-PLM initiative. It provides a record of program activities to date and describes the program’s distinguishing features, goals and objectives as it moves into its first cycle of data reporting. Key lessons learnt from the program’s activities are examined, which may have important applications for other countries involved in developing large-scale assessment programs. The case study concludes with a reflection of how the SEA-PLM program constitutes a critical component of participating countries’ SDG reporting requirements and offers a new regional tool to better respond to the changing needs of students in the 21st century.
