  ABSTRACT: This study investigates the current situation of primary school students’ scientific literacy across 121 schools in Zhejiang Province based on value-added assessment. Findings reveal uneven development across dimensions, with the highest value-added in scientific participation and the lowest in scientific ability. Females outperform males in overall scientific literacy, yet show no significant difference in value-added gains. Rural schools exhibit catch-up potential despite initial lower scores. The study identifies policy implementation discrepancies and resource allocation mismatches, recommending policy optimization, strengthened teacher support, teaching reform, and innovative evaluation systems.
