Children in England are among the best in the world when it comes to science.

England's pupils are in the top five for science in the rankings, according to a study carried out by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement (IEA).

More than 650,000 children in year 5 and year 9 in 64 countries took part in the study, which happens every four years.

They have to take a series of tests, and the results determine how countries are ranked internationally - it's like a big leaderboard.

Singapore and South Korea are still in the top positions for science and maths.

Researchers from University College London said there were "significant increases" in England's science scores in both year 5 and year 9 since Covid.

Dr Jennie Golding from UCL said: "The fact that pupils in England have maintained and even improved their scores is down to their hard work over the last few years and the determination and dedication of their teachers in supporting learning through prolonged, incredibly difficult circumstances."
