Abstract	This report looks at top-performing students in the PISA 2006 science assessment, their attitudes and motivations, and the schools in which they are enrolled. Top-performers are defined as those 15-year-old students who are proficient at Levels 5 and 6 on the PISA 2006 science scale as compared with strong performers (proficient at level 4), moderate performers (proficient at Levels 2 and 3), and those who are at risk of being left behind (proficient at level 1 or below). ... The development of this report was guided by three areas of interest: Who are the students who meet the highest performance standards [and] what types of families and communities do these students come from? What are the characteristics of the schools that they are attending, what kinds of instructional experiences are provided to them in science [and] how often do they engage in science-related activities outside of school? What motivations drive them in their study of science? What are their attitudes towards science and what are their intentions regarding science-related careers? (DIPF/Orig.).
