銆€銆€The UK's education system is ranked sixth best in the developed world, according to a global league table published by education firm Pearson.

銆€銆€The first and second places are taken by Finland and South Korea.

銆€銆€The rankings combine international test results and data such as graduation rates between 2006 and 2010.

銆€銆€Sir Michael Barber, Pearson's chief education adviser, says successful countries give teachers a high status and have a "culture" of education.

銆€銆€International comparisons in education have become increasingly significant - and this latest league table is based upon a series of global test results combined with measures of education systems, such as how many people go on to university.

銆€銆€The two education superpowers - Finland and South Korea - are followed by three other high-performing Asian education systems - Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore.

銆€銆€The UK is then ranked at the head of an above-average group including the Netherlands, New Zealand, Canada and Ireland.

銆€銆€These are ahead of a middle-ranking group including the United States, Germany and France.

銆€銆€At the lowest end are Mexico, Brazil and Indonesia.

銆€銆€These comparisons draw upon tests that are taken every three or four years, in areas such as maths, science and literacy - and so present a picture lagging by several years.

銆€銆€Looking at education systems that succeed, the study concludes that spending is important, but not as much as having a culture that is supportive of learning.

銆€銆€It says that spending is easier to measure, but the more complex impact of a society's attitude to education can make a big difference.

銆€銆€The success of Asian countries in these rankings reflects the high value attached to education and the expectations of parents. This can continue to be a factor when families migrate to other countries, says the report.

銆€銆€Looking at the two top countries - Finland and South Korea - the report says that there are many big differences, but the common factor is a shared social belief in the importance of education and its "underlying moral purpose".
