Studies regarding published educational research and its impact are very scarce in Portugal. Only by the end of the fifties (20th Century), educational research in Portugal started to be recognized as a mean by which educational policies and teacher practices could be changed. ln Portugal there is a great deal of problems in secondary school. ln the last twenty years Portuguese governments have been making ineffective decisions in relation to educational policies. On the other hand, during the last ten years research have been producing studies about secondary school which impact on political decisions is not yet known. The main goal of this study is to survey and analyse research studies on Portuguese secondary education, published between 1971 and 2003. The results presented here are merely centred in student assessment, one of the many themes of educational research. This study has an historical and descriptive nature, with a design that uses both qualitative and quantitative techniques and instruments.

Some important results and findings related to educational research made in Portugal in the student assessment area in secondary school are reported in this study.
