Klassekampen reports that Norwegian students scored the lowest among all Nordic countries in science, and only ranked #33 among all OECD countries in the subject. Finland scored the highest. This according to the PISA of the OECD. Some of the blame is placed on the frequent educational reforms in Norway, but another article in Klassekampen indicates that the parents' educational background makes a big difference on the results. Which seems to suggest that a major cause of the social democratic movement - to reduce differences based on socio-economic class structures - has failed.
