    Keywords: Education ; United Kingdom ; Schottland ; Schule ; Bildungssystem ; Qualität ; Chancengleichheit
    Abstract: L’Écosse obtient régulièrement d’excellents résultats au Programme international de l’OCDE pour le suivi des acquis des élèves (PISA) et son système scolaire est un des plus équitables de l’OCDE. Cet ouvrage analyse les forces des écoles écossaises et les difficultés qui s’opposent à la réussite de tous les enfants. La première de ces difficultés réside dans l’écart de résultats qui apparaît dans les dernières années de l’enseignement primaire et se creuse au début du secondaire : les enfants de milieux défavorisés sont plus exposés que les autres à l’échec scolaire. La deuxième concerne le besoin d’accroître le taux de scolarisation et de réussite dans le deuxième cycle du secondaire et d’améliorer l’équité dans l’enseignement supérieur. Cet examen analyse les performances des établissements scolaires écossais à partir des conclusions du PISA et des résultats aux tests et examens nationaux, et étudie les réformes éducatives entreprises en Écosse à la lumière de celles qui ont été engagées dans des pays rencontrant des difficultés comparables.

    Abstract: Scotland consistently performs at a very high standard in OECD’s Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and has one of the most equitable school systems in the OECD. This review examines the strengths of Scotland’s schools and the challenges they face in securing high standards for all children. One major challenge is an achievement gap that opens up late in primary education and widens through junior secondary years: children from poorer backgrounds are more likely than others to under-achieve. A second challenge for Scotland is to achieve broader and more successful participation in upper secondary education and greater equity in higher education. The review assesses the performance of Scottish schools, using PISA findings and national test and examination results. It also examines educational reforms in Scotland in the light of reforms in countries facing similar challenges.

    Abstract: Cet examen contient les principales conclusions et recommandations du Comité d’aide au développement et le rapport du Secrétariat. Il a été préparé avec des examinateurs des États-Unis et l’Italie en vue de la réunion d’examen par les pairs du 31 mai 2006. L’examen a salué l’action déterminée que mène le Royaume-Uni pour concourir à la réalisation des Objectifs du millénaire pour le développement (OMD) et porter son aide au développement à 0.7 % du revenu national brut (RNB) d’ici 2013. Le CAD a reconnu l’efficacité et la spécificité du modèle de coopération pour le développement britannique, qui est ancré sur un socle législatif solide et s’articule autour d’un mandat clairement défini dans le cadre d’un programme cohérent conduit sous la direction d’un ministre auquel est attribué un siège au Cabinet. Le Comité a recensé plusieurs améliorations possibles, (par exemple en matière d’approche de travail avec les donneurs, d’identification de priorités pour la cohérence des politiques, d’engagement avec la société civile et de clarification institutionnelle concernant l’aide humanitaire) qui placeraient le Royaume-Uni en bonne position pour relever les défis que constituent l’accroissement du volume de l’aide, le fait d’opérer dans les environnements plus complexes qui prévalent dans les États fragiles et la nécessité d’établir la réalité des résultats obtenus au regard du développement.

    Abstract: This review contains the Main Findings and Recommendations of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) and the report of the Secretariat. It was prepared with examiners from the United States and Italy for the Peer Review meeting held on 31 May 2006. The review welcomed the United Kingdom’s strong commitment to the Millennium Development Goals and to increase development aid to 0.7% of its Gross National Income by 2013. The Committee recognised the effectiveness of the United Kingdom’s distinctive development co-operation model, characterised by a strong legislative basis, clarity of mission and unified programme under a Cabinet Minister. It identified several opportunities (e.g. new tactics in working with donors, identifying policy coherence priorities, more strategic involvement of civil society, greater institutional clarity around humanitarian aid) to make improvements that would better place UK development co-operation to address the future challenges of scaling up aid volume, moving into more difficult operational environments in fragile states and clearly demonstrating development results.

    Abstract: Economic globalisation and the subsequent intensification of inter-city competition have profoundly changed urban governance. This is particularly evident in the field of urban spatial development. The change is often described as a shift from a managerial mode of governance to a more entrepreneurial mode, strongly characterised by risk-taking, innovation, a strong orientation toward the private sector and a strategic approach which focuses on economic growth. This study reviews the challenges that urban entrepreneurialism must overcome to maintain and strengthen its relevance in the 21st century. Urban policy planners are expected to address an increasingly wide range of objectives, including social, environmental and cultural issues as well as economic ones.

    Abstract: There is growing recognition throughout the OECD of the need to link economic development and employment policies at the level of the individual city if the twin objectives of raising competitiveness and reducing worklessness are to be met. The challenge is particularly clear in the UK, where the employment rate of the working age population in the major cities has lagged consistently behind the relatively strong performance of the nation as a whole (HM Treasury, 2007). The Government has recognised that raising the UK employment rate towards its ambitious 80%national target will require special efforts to tackle unemployment and economic inactivity in the cities (Department of Work and Pensions, 2006). This is an important departure from the traditional emphasis on national labour market policies and standardised welfare to work programmes that pay little regard to geographical variations in socio-economic conditions. One of the issues arising is the appropriate balance between measures to stimulate labour demand and create jobs, on the one hand, and measures to strengthen labour supply by improving people’s skills, employability and motivation, on the other. There is also an issue about how to connect employment opportunities to people in need of work but who face multiple disadvantages and barriers to employment, such as poor transport access and lack of childcare. Another issue relates to the amount of decentralisation and local control of the policy levers that government should encourage, and what form this should take. The purpose of this paper is to address these important questions by focusing on the labour market context and policy situation in Glasgow.

    Abstract: This paper was prepared by Sigma, upon the request of the Ministry of the Interior of the Czech Republic, to serve as a basic comparative working document for the preparation of a new policy and regulation on conflict of interest in the Czech public sector. Given its generalist orientation, the paper could also be useful for other countries carrying out specific reforms in the area of conflict of interest and general reforms related to anti-corruption policies and instruments.This paper provides descriptive data and an analytical overview of approaches to managing conflicts of interest in the public sector of nine European countries - six "old" EU members (France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom) and three "new" EU members (Hungary, Latvia and Poland). The paper also provides some conclusions that are worth taking into account when reforming policies and instruments to improve regulations and practices on conflict of interest.

    Abstract: This report focuses on one environmental instrument which is part of the UK’s wider programme of policies to deal with its various obligations to control climate change. The instrument is the Climate Change Levy (CCL) which takes the form of a tax on energy. However, the CCL cannot be viewed in isolation – it is part of a fairly elaborate package of measures, and its interaction with the other instruments in that package need to be understood. Accordingly, we first set out a brief history of the UK’s approach to climate change control, and describe the various components of the policy package. A detailed history of the CCL is then provided, and this is followed by an analysis of the features of the CCL, focusing particularly on the political factors that influenced its design, and the various reactions to it. Finally, we look at the likely future of the CCL in light of developments in climate change policy in the wider Europe.
