  • Interpreting the Fraser Institute Ranking of Secondary Schools in British Columbia
    INTERPRETING THE FRASER INSTITUTE RANKING OF SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN BRITISH COLUMBIA: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF HOW THE MECHANICS OF SYMBOLIC CAPITAL MOBILIZATION SHAPES, MANAGES, AND AMPLIFIES VISIBILITY ASYMMETRIES BETWEEN SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL SYSTEMS by Michael John Simmonds M.Ed., Columbia University, 1998 M.A., McGill University, 1991 Diploma in Secondary Science Education, McGill University, 1989 B.P.E., University of New Brunswick, 1985 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF EDUCATION in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Educational Leadership and Policy) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) February 2012 © Michael John Simmonds, 2012 Abstract In the discourse on how to improve British Columbia’s secondary schools two prevailing epistemological tensions exist between two competing rationalities: (1) an instrumental rationality that privileges sense-making born out of data-gathering, and (2) a values- rationality that is discernibly more context-dependent. The seeds for public discord are sown when a particular kind of logic for capturing the complexity of any problematic is privileged over a competing (counter) logic attempting to do the same thing. The Fraser Institute proposes to the public a particular vision on how to improve secondary schools by manufacturing annual school report cards that are published in newspapers and online. Proponents of school report cards believe that school improvement is predicated on measurement, competition, market-driven reform initiatives, and choice. They support the strategies and techniques used by the Fraser Institute to demarcate the limits and boundaries of exemplary educational practice. Critics of school report cards object to the way ranking rubrics highlight and amplify differences that exist between schools.

The plan contains an assessment of fuel types and assets exposed to wildfire hazard across the District, and a set of recommendations aimed at reducing wildfire risk to people, infrastructure and the environment, with the focus on areas along the wildland-urban interface (WUI) zone. The Wildfire Risk Management System (WRMS) was used to identify areas of high hazard fuels associated with values at risk within the District. A total of 52 strategic recommendations have been proposed and summarised in Table 1 within the Executive Summary/Summary of CWPP Recommendations section at the beginning of the plan. Approximately 164 hectares (ha) of high hazard fuel types have been identified and the areas detailed in Section 5.1.1 Proposed Treatment Units, page 63, Table 15 and Map 11 Proposed and Past Treatments page 69 for locations.
