England
The English Educational system places a lot of importance in the assessment and testing of pupils where they are compulsorily tested at the ages of seven, eleven and fourteen years with a special emphasis on Mathematics and English. The curriculum in schools is set by guidelines provided by the government which mainly aims in raising the standards of its children.

1: Errrrrrrr..... where is SOUTH KOREA???? Really? you thought of putting UK and England- which are the same thing- and the States down but nowhere on this list can I find South Korea... "no pressure on homeowrk or tests" isn't the same thing as "being smart"

2: NO, this is plain wrong. DENMARK? Are you fricking kidding me? Newsflash. Denmark is right now turning upside down in an attempt to improve their schools, ever since it was discovered they ranked one of the lowest in school performance, EVEN THOUGH THEY SPENT THE MOST MONEY ON IT.
I should know, I live there.

3: 1. Why do they have the UK and England separately?
2. Since when do students in the US not have to sit national exams?
3. Where's Japan? Austria? Italy? Switzerland? Iceland? Australia? New Zealand? Canada? Israel? South Korea? Norway? All of these countries rank above the US according to the OECD comparison tables, even taking in to account non-OECD countries (and one must also keep in mind that China = Shanghai in almost all tests - it is NOT a national average).
Fact check fact check fact check.
