Introduction

Welcome to CAPE rankings 2014. This ranking highlights the CAPE institutions that are doing the best at the top 3 levels of the grade scale. We have deliberate avoided using grades 4 and 5 in our measurement as we believe this is a race to the bottom. We wanted to highlight schools that were generating excellent results at grades 1, 2 and 3. Some may not agree with this, after all CAPE says 4 and 5 are passes. We acknowledge 4 and 5 as passes for the purposes of exam, however as mentioned earlier, we wanted to measure schools performing at the top end of the grade scale. What did we use to measure? Percentage of pupils obtaining 2 or more subjects with grades 1-3 (I-III) in the 2013 Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examinations (CAPE).

This ranking highlights the institutions that are performing at the top grade levels of 1, 2 and 3 in CAPE.
