How is the Tests Developed?
The IBT is one of many high-quality educational assessments developed by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER), a world leader in assessment and reporting. It provides high quality feedback for teachers and students and allows them to compare their performance reliably with students from their own school, country and other countries around the world.Highly experienced test developers at ACER develop the IBT content based on a broad conception of curriculum used in a number of international assessment contexts. No single, national curriculum is used for the IBT, so students from a range of countries participating in the tests can be compared fairly.
