Introduction The Statistical Digest provides a range of statistics and performance measures related to education in Samoa.

The information included in the digest is the latest information available as of June 2014. Historical data has also been included to reflect changes over time.

The Digest is divided into two parts:

 Part 1 – Data from School Census Information System and Early Childhood Education (ECE) Monitoring Visits  Part 2 – Data from sources other than the School Census Information System

Part 1

Data from School Census Information System The Annual School Census data collection, held on the first week of March, is a major source of statistical information. The census data is stored in the Ministry’s school census information system called Manumea. The school census information system includes a series of reports, which are automatically produced. These reports are contained in Part 1 of the Statistical Digest.

Data for Early Childhood Education (ECE) is collected from monitoring visits conducted by the Ministry. This information is stored separately.

Part 2

Data from sources other than the School Census Information System The Ministry of Education, Sports and Culture’s performance measure framework includes a range of indicators provided by the Assessment and Examination Unit. Data has been collected from a range of sources such as examination results and personnel information. This information is contained in Part 2 of the Statistical Digest.

BRIEF OVERVIEW OF SAMOA’S EDUCATION SYSTEM

Primary and Secondary education in Samoa is provided through three stakeholders, namely the Government in partnership with village based school committees, mission schools and private schools. The islands of Upolu and Savaii are divided into three regions and 22 educational districts. The three regions are Apia Urban, Rest of Upolu and Savaii.

Primary education covers an eight-year cycle from Years 1 – 8 and is compulsory for children between the ages of five to 14 years old.

Primary students sit a national examination called Samoa Primary Education Certification Assessment (SPECA) at the end of Year 8 to determine students’ ability and competency before entry into secondary schools. Year 4 and Year 6 students sit the Samoa Primary Education Literacy Level (SPELL) Tests 1 and 2 respectively as a measurement and diagnostic tool to allow literacy standards to be monitored and identify students who are at risk of achieving educational outcomes.

Secondary education covers five years from Years 9 -13, with senior colleges both in the private, mission and public sectors offering full programmes up to Year 13. Secondary education begins at age 13 or 14 and lasts for five years.

Secondary school students receive the Samoa School Certificate after completing the National Examination for Year 12. A national examination, the Samoa Secondary Leaving Certificate (SSLC) replacing the regional examination called the Pacific Senior School Certificate (PSSC) is taken upon completion of Year 13 and is required for enrolment in tertiary institutions both locally and overseas.

ECE was first introduced in Samoa in the early 1970’s as a private undertaking and community initiative. Official recognition of preschools by Government was given through a Cabinet Approval in 1976. Since then, there has been a rapid growth of preschools, kindergartens and Early Childhood Centres in Samoa.

ECE centres are the responsibility of the private sector under the management of various non- government bodies. These include the various churches and religious groups, boards, women’s committee groups, individuals and organisations namely; (i) Methodist, (ii) Catholic (iii) Faaea – as part of Congregational Christian church of Samoa (CCCS), (iv) Komiti Tumama, and (v) Private ECE centers.

Definitions

Apparent Retention Rate compares the number of students in a given year with the size of the cohort. For example, the apparent retention rate of Years 9-12 for 2014 is calculated as the number of students in Year 12 in 2014 divided by the number of students in Year 9 in 2011.

Completion Rates the percentage of students sitting the national exams is a measure of completion rates, e.g. percentage of students sitting the Year 8 exam is a measure of how many students starting Year 8 actually complete Year 8.

Drop-out Rate the percentage of students who neither progress from one level to the next nor repeat the same level.

Pri-Sec (Primary-Secondary) a school that provides both primary and secondary levels, e.g. Paul V1 College has Year 7 & 8 levels. It should be noted that Robert Louis Stevenson School is counted as two schools because of their physical locations.

SPELL Test Samoa Primary Education Literacy Level is a test taken by all year 4 and year 6 students in Government schools. Most Non-Government schools also participate, but it is not compulsory. It provides an indication of the students whose learning outcomes are identified as being at risk so that they receive attention from teachers in their reading and numeracy programmes.

Student Teacher Ratio is calculated as the number of students at a school divided by the total number of teachers (including Principals) at the school. Data is from Annual School Census.

Transition Rate is the percentage of students who complete one level and move on to the immediate/next level. For example, the transitional rate into Post-Secondary studies is the number of students who commenced post-secondary education in 2014 (Institute of Higher Education, Institute of Technology) as a percentage of the students who were in Year 13 in 2013.

Promotion Rate is the proportion of students who have successfully completed a Year Level and proceeded to the next Year Level the following year.

Net Enrolment Rate is the enrolment in a particular education level of the official school age-group expressed as a percentage of the corresponding population. This rate can be calculated by education level, e.g. primary or secondary.

Gross Enrolment Rate is the total enrolment for a particular education level (primary or secondary), regardless of age, expressed as a percentage of the eligible official school-age population of that particular educational level in a given school year.

SPECA Samoa Primary Education Completion Assessment focuses on measuring competencies and readiness of students in future performance.

Beginner level where the student will take time to learn, need special training and exposure in different levels of skills needed.

Proficient level where the student requires attending classes, courses and study to learn various areas of skills.

Advance level where the student can easily learn when guided through trainings or teachings. He/She is recommended to take courses or tracks that require various areas of skills.

On average, the transition rates by gender fluctuate over the years across all year levels. Most of the transition rates are above 90%, which indicates that almost all students transit to the next year levels. From year 8 to year 9, more females transit to the secondary level than males, and this also applies to other year levels.

Overall, there is high transition rate in the primary level, however, it decreases as it moves to the secondary level, and this corresponds to the high dropout rates in the secondary level as more and more students move out of the education system especially males.

Dropout rates fluctuate for both males and females across all year levels over the years. There are males’ high dropout rates than females as shown in the Year 1 – Year 2 and Year 8 – Year 9. High dropout rates experienced in the secondary level in all year levels except from year 11 – year 12. More males drop out of the secondary level than females across the years, with year 12 – year 13 experienced the highest number. It assumes that more males drop out of the education system as they progress to the senior levels and move to vocational schools to continue their studies. Low dropout rates show in the year 11 – year 12 since some of the colleges do not have year 11 level, however, students can progress straight from year 10 to year 12.

Overall, high dropout rates are seen in the secondary level than the primary level; with males dominate these high rates across all year levels.

The table above shows the students teacher ratio for every primary school in Samoa. It shows that the majority of the primary schools do not meet the standard ratio, and it falls heavily on the government schools. This indicates that there is still a shortage of teachers to cater for the high number of students.

For government primary schools, about 83 schools meet the standard ratio (30:1), while 60 schools do not meet. This shows that only 58% of all government primary schools meet the national ratio, and this indicates that more teachers need to be employed to accommodate the increasing number of students in the education system.

For secondary level, the majority of the colleges do not meet the national standard ratio are from the Rest of Upolu and Savaii regions. Most colleges meet the standard ratio are in the Urban Area regions (Faleata and Vaimauga Districts).

For Government schools, only 15 (65%) government colleges meet the standard ratio this year, with only 8 do not meet, hence there is no change when compared to 2014.

Note: These student-teacher ratios are based on the total enrolment and the total number of teachers in Government schools.

From 2006 – 2010, Government primary schools had student teacher ratios above 30:1, and then gradually meeting the national standard ratio in 2011 – 2013. In 2014 and 2015, the ratio again increased. Secondary schools met the national standard student teacher ratio for most of the years except 2006, 2007, 2009 and 2010 where it did not meet the standard ratio.

2013 2014

SPECA examination started in 2013 with its main focus on testing the level of skills of the students in five subject areas listed in Table 27. Each subject area was categorized in three levels of achievement namely Beginner, Proficient and Advanced. The SPECA Examination has replaced the Yr 8 National Examination which was previously sat by Yr 8 students over the years. Table 27, shows a decrease in the number of students sat the SPECA examination in all five subjects areas in 2014 compared to 2013. Students who achieved Advanced across all subject areas experienced a huge decline in 2014 in comparison to 2013. The majority of the students fall within Proficient and Beginners categories.

Critical Thinking showed only 15 students (0.4%) out of 4179 categorized as Advanced students, while most of the students are Proficient and Beginners. This shows a massive decline when compared to 1,572 Advanced students in 2013.

The number of students who sat the Year 12 exams varied throughout the years, with the highest number recorded in 2010 of 2,886 students (98%). The latter then dropped to 2,257 students (81%) in 2011, and then increased to 2,606 students (85%) in 2012 and 2,615 students (83%) in 2013. However, it decreases by 4% from 83% in 2013 to 79% in 2014. The Year 12 enrolment shows that many students enrolled in schools at the beginning of the year, but failed to sit the end of the year final exams as reflected by the large differences in the number of enrolments and those who sat the Yr 12 exams.

The localization of Yr 13 Examinations started in 2013, and the table above shows that about 84% of Yr 13 students sat the end of year exam, a less of 2% when compared to 86% recorded in 2013. This indicates that not all students who enrolled in Yr 13 at the beginning of the year sat the exam, due to drop out of the education system or migrate overseas for whatever reason (s).

The national participation rates of students in the age group 5–14 have been stable and remained above 90% from 2065-2015. The highest participation rate was recorded in 2013 at 101%, which indicates that all students in that particular age group are most likely in the education system. However, it slightly decreased to 100% in 2014 and 99% in 2015, thus indicated by the increase in drop out rates in the primary level.

For the 15-19 age group, the national participation rates are below 60% but have improved over the years. It remained steady in 2006 and 2007, and increased from 2008 to 2012 then dropped to 55% in 2013, and slightly increased again to 56% in 2014 and 58% in 2015. This coincides with higher dropout rates at the secondary level especially at Year 12 to Year 13.

Years

The apparent retention rate for students enrolled in Year 1 in 2008 and successfully progressed to Year 8 in 2015 is 88%, an increase of 3% when compared to 85% achieved in 2014. This indicates that many students from this cohort have enrolled or entered the education systembefore they reached Year 8.

The apparent retention rate for students enrolled in Year 9 in 2012 and successfully progressed to Year 12 in 2015 is 73%, a decrease of 7% compared to 80% recorded in 2014. However, for students who were enrolled in Year 9 in 2011, only 53% of this cohort have successfully progressed to Year 13 in 2015. This means that many students from this cohort have either dropped out from school early especially after Year 12, or have migrated overseas.
