    CSEC Grade Analysis - How do we fix education in Jamaica

    http://jamaica-gleaner.com/pages/cse...ade/#/8/zoomed

    It's 61 pages. The value added stats that start on page 42 are interesting. The top academic schools are really 'academic preservers' maintaining the talent that they received through GSAT. How we fix those school with significant negative value added?

    StGC can take heart from the Stats. English and Maths scores trending on general increase over the last 3 years and while they are -3 valued added for English, they are +3 for Maths....with incoming ranks of 14 and 15, respectively. GSAT averages of 84 and 88 respectively.

    These schools must first become inspired organizations themselves, in order to inspire the kids.

              A huge part of the problem lies with work done...lousy work...previous to entering these schools. ...and the other part lies with work done in the high schools.

              If we are all agreed that TALENT ABOUNDS...AND IT DOES...then in the teaching lies the 'fault-lines'.

                I don't believe you. I created it in the everything Jamaican forum. Somebody wanted it hidden and moved it to the other sports forum. How do I check to see where a post was originally placed?

                  St G and some of the schools that recruit sport students are doing much better that the scores indicate. The starting GSAT average is actually lower that the calculated value. Students who come on sport scholarship have lower scores that the GSAT entry score for the school and are not factored in the score. However, they are factored in the final exam score.

                    You can't check that.

                    Anyway, we all make mistakes. Some more than others!

                    I'll move it over.

                          Good post!
                          ...note that is not a comment on the 'paper'. It shall take some nuff-nuff time reading.
