Education Research Bank
The Education Research Bank is the Pacific’s own digital infrastructure that houses education related research information from across the region. The research bank provides a web-based platform allowing Pacific Island countries as well as existing and emerging development partners to be aware of the research already available in the region. Through this platform, the Pacific has the opportunity to contribute critical and trusted research towards a regional pool that has the power to inform future education policies of the region.Pacific Benchmarking for Education Results (PaBER) Solomon Islands Report

Abstract:
The Pacific Benchmarking for Education Results (PaBER) programme was introduced in 2012 to improve the quality of education and student performance across the Pacific, and in particular to respond to low levels of literacy and numeracy. PaBER provides education ministries with systematic and reliable evidence and analysis of their own systems, benchmarked against high performing systems globally. This gives policy-makers and other stakeholders the opportunity to judge the strengths and weaknesses of current policy and systems, and how these may influence learning, and to formulate appropriate reforms and action. PaBER was set up to test this approach in three pilot countries (Solomon Islands, Samoa and Papua New Guinea (PNG)).
