This section shows the percentage of children aged 15 who reported reading as one of their favourite hobbies.
This data was taken from the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). PISA is a project of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) that aims to measure how well students, at age 15, are prepared to meet the challenges they may encounter in future life, including education. PISA takes place every three years and assesses student skills and knowledge in the three domains of reading literacy, mathematics and science.
