      <![CDATA[
        Over 400 teachers and principals from private and public schools in Dubai will assess the achievements of pupils in maths and science in the context of data collected by an international assessment exam last year. The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) was carried out in 2007 in government and private schools by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), the first such international assessment carried out in Dubai's schools. The results of the process were published by KHDA a year ago, which indicated that Dubai pupils have performed poorly when compared to international standards.  [AMEInfo.com]
