The SMH takes the number of English or Maths exams taken by the school and the number of exams that scored band 6 or band E4 and expresses them as a percentage. It doesn't take into account how many students got it.panicstation said:What they should say is 168 candidates, then how many of those had distinctions. So, say you had 168 candidates but only 30 of those were awarded distinctions. In English, that could mean 90 distinctions even. So it doesn't show whether the school can teach everyone English or whether it teaches only those right at the top to be good at English
I don't see why your 'model' shows depth and how what I illustrated above shows why your idea would give a real indication of what the school did. To me it is quite obvious school A did better than school B.panicstation said:I think my model shows depth. Your "worked solution" shows why my idea would give a real indication of what the school did. The other way is misleading.
