An effective student assessment system is an important component to improving education quality and learning outcomesas it provides the necessary information to meet stakeholders’ decision-making needs.

The SABER-Student Assessment framework is built on the available evidence base for what an effective assessment system looks like. The framework provides guidance on how countries can build more effective student assessment systems. The framework is structured around two main dimensions of assessment systems: the types/purposes of assessment activitiesand the quality of those activities.
