The Overall rating out of 10 is intended to answer the question, “In general, how is the school doing, academi- cally compared with others in the report card?” The following is a simplified description of the procedure used to convert the data received from the Ministry of Education into the Overall rating out of 10.

1 The results for English and French language examinations are separately subjected to the following procedures.

2 The Average levels achieved on each of the two grade-9 mathematics tests, the two OSSLT results (FTE and PE), and the indicators of failure on the four test sittings were standardized by calculating Z, which is defined by:

Z = (X − µ) / σ

where X is the individual school’s result, µ is the mean of the all-schools distribution of results, and σ is the standard deviation of the same all-schools distribution.

3 The standardized data for results data were then aggregated. The weighting used was the number of student writers of each test relative to the total number of student test writers in the relevant subject area.

4 Similarly, the standardized data for the indicators of failure were aggregated using the same method of weighting.

5 The Gender gap values for the grade-9 mathematics test and the OSSLT were each calculated by determining the absolute value of the difference in the level of achievement (or success rate in the case of the OSSLT) of male students and female students at the school. The results for each subject were then standardized.

6 The four standardized indicator results created in steps 3, 4, and 5 were then combined to produce a weighted, average, summary standardized score for the school. The weightings used in these calculations were: combined results indicator—45%; Combined fail rate indicator—45%; Gender gap measures—5% each. For schools where there were fewer than two gender gap results, the weightings for the missing gender gap indicators were assigned to the combined fail rate indicator.

7 This summary standardized score was re-standardized.

This standardized score was converted into an overall rating between 0 and 10 as follows:

8 The allowable maximum and minimum standardized scores were set at 2.2 and −3.29 respectively. Scores

equal to, or greater than, 2.2 receive an overall rating of 10. This cut-off was chosen because it allows more than one school in a given year to be awarded 10 out of 10. Scores of equal to, or less than, −3.29 receive the lowest overall rating of 0. Schools with scores below −3.29 are likely to be outliers, a statistical term used to denote members of a population that appear to have characteristics substantially different from the rest of the population. We chose, therefore, to set the minimum score so as to disregard such extreme differences.

9 The resulting standardized scores were converted into Overall ratings out of 10 according to the formula:

OR = µ + ( σ * StanScore)

where OR is the resulting Overall rating out of 10, µ is the average calculated according to the formula:

µ = (ORmin − 10 (Zmin / Zmax)) / (1 − (Zmin / Zmax)) where σ is the standard deviation calculated according to the formula: σ = (10 − µ) / Zmax and StanScore is the standardized score calculated in (6) above and adjusted as required for minimum and

maximum values as noted in (7) above. As noted in (7) above, ORmin equals zero, Zmin equals −3.29; and Zmax equals 2.2.

10 Finally, the derived Overall rating out of 10 is rounded to one place of the decimal to reflect the significant number of places of the decimal in the original raw data.

Note that the Overall rating out of 10, based as it is on standardized scores, is a relative rating. That is, in order for a school to show improvement in its Overall rating out of 10, it must improve more than the average. If it improves, but at a rate less than the average, it will show a decline in its rating. About the authors

Peter Cowley Peter Cowley is the Director of School Performance Studies at The Fraser Institute. He graduated from the University of British Columbia with a B.Comm. in 1974. Shortly thereafter, he began a long career in marketing and general management in several sectors. During his assignments in general management, process improve- ment was a special focus and interest. In 1994, Mr Cowley independently wrote and published The Parent’s Guide, a popular handbook for parents of British Columbia’s secondary-school students. The Parent’s Guide web site replaced the handbook in 1995. In 1998, Mr Cowley was co-author of The Fraser Institute’s A Secondary Schools Report Card for British Columbia, the first of the Institute’s continuing series of annual reports on school performance. This was fol- lowed by The 1999 Report Card on British Columbia’s Secondary Schools, The 1999 Report Card on Alberta’s High Schools, and Boys, Girls, and Grades: Academic Gender Balance in British Columbia’s Secondary Schools. Since then, Mr Cowley has co-authored all of the Institute’s annual report cards on Canadian schools. Annual editions now include report cards on secondary schools in British Columbia, Yukon, Alberta, Ontario, and and on elementary schools in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario as well as the occasional Report Card on Aboriginal Education in British Columbia.

Stephen T. Easton Stephen T. Easton in addition to being a Senior Scholar at the Fraser Institute, is a professor of Economics, a member of the School for International Studies, and an Associate member of the School of Criminology at Simon Fraser University. He received his A.B. from Oberlin College and his Ph.D. from the University of Chicago. Recent works published by The Fraser Institute include Marijuana Growth in British Columbia (2004), Privatizing Prisons (editor, 1998), The Costs of Crime: Who Pays and How Much? 1998 Update (with Paul Brantingham, 1998), and Rating Global Economic Freedom (editor, 1992). A co-author of A Secondary Schools Report Card for British Columbia (1998), Boys, Girls, and Grades: Academic Gender Balance in British Columbia’s Secondary Schools (1999) and the Report Card on Aboriginal Education in British Columbia (2004), he has continued to co-author the Report Cards for British Columbia, Alberta, New Brunswick and, most recently, Ontario.

Women and Men in Higher Education,” in David Laidler (ed.), Renovating the Ivory Tower: Canadian Universities and the Knowledge Economy (C.D.
