Ranking the schools - Fraser Institute

Ranking the schools

Important notes to the rankings

In this table, schools are ranked (on the left hand side of the page) in descending order (from 1 to 274) according to their academic performance as measured by the Overall rating out of 10 (shown on the right hand side of the table) for the school year 1999/2000. Each school's five-year average ranking and Overall rating out of 10 are also listed. The higher the overall rating (out of 10), the higher the rank awarded to the school. Where schools tied in the overall rating, they were awarded the same rank. Where less than five years of data was available "n/a" appears in the table.

Not all the province's secondary schools are included in the tables or the ranking. Excluded are

schools at which fewer than 15 students were enrolled in grade 12. These schools do not generate a sufficiently large set of student data to allow a fair and reasonable analysis and presentation of the results.

Also excluded from the ratings and rankings are: centres for adult education and continuing education; schools that cater largely to nonresident foreign students; and certain alternative schools that do not offer a full program of courses.

The exclusion of a school from the Report Card should in no way be construed as a judgement of the school's effectiveness.
