Percentile/SFO Comparison Charts

Data and Evaluation Division

Feb 2008

Purpose of presentation

To explain to schools the replacement for the Like School Group approach, the Percentile/SFO Comparison Charts.

Topics

• The Problem

• The Previous Solution (LSGs)

• Alternatives Considered

• Percentile/SFO Comparison Charts

The Problem

How does my school’s student achievement score compare to other schools, given that my school is “different” to the average school?

The Previous Solution - LSGs

• “Like” school groups (LSG) commenced in 1996

• Created so schools could compare their performance to “similar schools”

• 9 LSGs based on two measures; – EMA/Youth Allowance: proportion of students in

school in receipt of EMA or Youth Allowance– LBOTE: proportion of students from a language

background other than English

• Good acceptance overall, but weaknesses are now apparent

• Weaknesses include:— Schools close to a boundary (unfairly compared to all schools in LSG)— EMA/Youth Allowance data no longer available— LSGs are of unequal size (no. of schools in LSG4 is almost 10x that in LSG3)

LSG chart

Alternatives considered

1) Like School Sphere– For each school, compare results to performance of 19

nearest schools (in terms of SFO and maybe LBOTE, enrolment)

– Gets extremely complicated statistically

2) Percentile/SFO Comparison Charts

Student Family Occupation (SFO) densities• Indicator of socio-economic status

• SFO accounts for 38% of variance in student achievement

• LBOTE only accounts for an additional 5%

• Used in Student Resource Package

• 4 years of SFO data (2004-2007)

Value-add? No

• Not an attempt at value-add

• Simply is what it is

• If SFO was the sole determinant of student achievement, a school’s student achievement percentile would be within the “vicinity” of its SFO percentile. If it’s above (or below), the school could hypothesise why.

Percentile/SFO Comparison Charts Principles behind• Use Student Family Occupation (SFO) only as best

predictor of student achievement

• Examine student achievement and SFO percentiles together

• Keep it simple

• Use lots of data, over time, across strands (don’t rely on any one bit of data)

• Combine the data with the school context to get the full story
