Abstract

The paper discusses the relationship between the concepts of a knowledge society and the quality of education. The quality of education is seen in the quality of educational outcomes. The indicators of the quality of the national elementary school system are
the following: the national average of educational achievements in terms of science, mathematics and reading competences; the extent of differences in school averages in relation to literacy in the country and the degree of interrelatedness between family circumstances and the national average; and differences between schools and individual
differences in terms of achievements within schools. The paper shows and interprets the results achieved by fifteen-year-old students in Croatian schools during the 2006 international survey on the quality of education (PISA 2006).
