Key resultsThe core analysis of your survey data; proportions making progress in academic subjects and satisfactionlevels in non-academic and additional criteria. Explanations have been provided to help you to interpret yourresults.

Interpreting results

For the sake of assessment in most schools, academic questions receiving a score of:

• Over 90% are 'outstanding' (above the gold line)

• 80% to 89.9% are 'good' (above the green line)

• 75% to 79.9% indicate 'room for improvement' (above the red line)

• Below 75% indicates 'attention advised' (below the red line)

Non-academic and additional questions receiving a score of:

• Over 80% are 'outstanding' (above the gold line)

• 70% to 79.9% are 'good' (above the green line)

• 65% to 69.9% indicate 'room for improvement' (above the red line)

• Below 65% indicates 'attention advised' (below the red line)

Weighted scoresIn the results tables the scores achieved are given as a percentage. A full explanation of how true/falseresponses were converted to percentages is given on our website. As there is a measurable bias in the waythat students score criteria, it is necessary to create “weighted” scores so that the score for any one criterionmight be compared meaningfully with the score for any other criterion on a ‘level playing field’. These weightedscores are calculated based upon the average scores achieved from over 10 international schools. Resultsquoted from the previous survey, if applicable, may show small differences from those originally given, as theweightings applied change slightly from one year to the next.

Statistical reliabilityGenerally all of our results are quoted as being reliable to within less than 5% at the 95% confidence level.Where this is not possible due to the sample achieved, results are quoted as reliable to within less than 10%at the 95% confidence level and are highlighted in blue. Occasionally when results are even less reliablewe show an indicative result and highlight in pink. Where there are fewer than 10 responses we only show“low response” and no further result is quoted. For further information see our website for details. Criteriawhich have not yet been surveyed in at least 20 schools do not yet have an average figure, and therefore,these scores cannot be weighted against what students parents ‘usually’ say. These un-weighted scores aremarked *.

Psychology Low response

Your results are shown as a weightedscore. This is a calculation applied toyour raw results using the averagescores achieved from over 10international schools. It allows eachcriterion to be compared meaningfullyon a ‘level playing field’. This scorecan be over 100%.

The previous survey results mayappear to differ slightly from youroriginal report last year. This isbecause the “weighting” calculationapplied changes slightly from oneyear to the next.

Scores above the goldline are ‘outstanding’.

Scores above the greenline are ‘good’.

Scores above the redline indicate 'room forimprovement'.

* This criteria has not yetbeen surveyed in at least 20schools. As such we do nothave an average figure andtherefore cannot weight thisscore against what studentsparents ‘usually’ say.

Scores below the redline indicate 'attentionadvised'.

“Low response” indicatesthat there were fewerthan 10 responses.

Subject scores in pinkshould only be consideredindicative due to a lowsample size, or highpolarisation.

Subject scores in blueare only reliable to within10% due to the sampleachieved.

Only highlighted changes shouldbe considered significant – agreen highlight shows a significantimprovement, a red highlight showsa significant decline, since the lastsurvey.

Student survey report – Student priorities

Copyright © 2015 Kirkland Rowell Limited Page 19 of 76

Student prioritiesStudents were asked to choose the ten criteria which were most important to them from a list of twenty. Thissection shows the analysis of these importance ratings and of the priorities for improvement.

Student priorities importance

Ideally those criteria which are most important to students will be the criteria to which students award thehighest scores. In the following table, the second column shows the percentage of students who chose eachof the criteria as one of their ten choices of what they felt was most important to them. The third column showshow well the school performs for the criteria ie. 1st = what the school does best, 20th = what the school doesleast well. Only highlighted rankings should be considered as being worthy of note. A green highlight showsthat the school performs well within a criterion that is important to students, a red highlight shows that theschool performs less well within a criterion that is important to students. The final two columns show the sameinformation for the previous survey, for comparison.
