So Far, So Good: Levels of Academic Achievement in Catholic Schools.

Morris, Andrew B.

Educational Studies, v24 n1 p83-94 Apr 1998

Observes that pupils in Catholic schools in England and Wales obtain high marks at Key Stages Two and Four compared with those attending other schools, but that their achievements in advanced-level examinations are lower than expected. Points to evidence of a long-standing pattern of similar performance and speculates on possible causes. (DSK)
