The Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Jeong Geun-sik) announced the results of the 2024 Seoul Student Literacy and Mathematical Ability Diagnostic Test on January 14. This test was conducted on approximately 94,000 students in 524 elementary, middle, and high schools in Seoul, and was used as a tool to comprehensively diagnose basic literacy and math skills.
This diagnostic test, which was first introduced nationwide in 2023, focuses on measuring students’ overall learning ability beyond checking basic academic ability. Individual students can take the test every two years to check their growth data, and this is expected to enable meaningful growth analysis starting in 2025.
