Abstract

This chapter delves into the concept of educational quality and its relationship with performance measurement systems in public schools. It discusses the implementation of competency standards and performance measurement systems in Colombia, highlighting the use of large-scale testing such as SABER and ICFES. The chapter also explores the historical background of test-based accountability systems and their impact on educational quality. Additionally, it covers the criticisms and recommendations for enhancing school assessment systems, providing a thorough analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of these systems. The chapter is designed to provide readers with a deep understanding of the complexities involved in measuring and improving educational quality through accountability systems.
