These tests, organized by the Canary Agency for University Quality and Educational Evaluation (ACCUEE), aim to obtain detailed information about the educational system of the islands. The goal is to identify needs, recognize good practices, and adjust resources and programs to the reality of each educational center. The director of ACCUEE, María Rosa Suárez, has highlighted the formative and guiding nature of the process, whose reports allow for educational responses to be tailored to the data collected.

The evaluations analyze the development of key competencies. In 4th grade of Primary Education, they focus on areas such as Spanish Language and Literature, Mathematics, and Knowledge of the Natural, Social, and Cultural Environment. For 2nd grade of Secondary Education, the focus is on Experimental Sciences. The Ministry of Education emphasizes that these tests are not intended to grade students but to conduct a confidential diagnosis of the centers, assessing their pedagogical strategies, working conditions, potential improvement measures, and available resources.

The process, which has already been carried out in Primary schools and continues in Secondary schools, is entirely conducted in a digital format. This in-house design by ACCUEE positions the Canary Islands as a benchmark in the modernization of educational evaluation. The digital format improves traceability, standardizes the process, and speeds up information gathering. Advanced technological tools have been integrated for the analysis and correction of open-ended questions, with the collaboration of expert faculty from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and experienced classroom teachers.

Once the tests are administered, the centers will receive detailed information to analyze their results based on their context and guide decision-making. At the regional level, the data will provide the Ministry with a global view of the Canary Islands' educational system, allowing for enhanced attention to diversity, the promotion of innovation programs, and the planning of evidence-based actions. The process is coordinated by ACCUEE, supported by Educational Inspection, the Ministry's IT services, and the collaboration of management teams, teaching staff, students, and families.
