Aboriginal Report 2013/14-2017/18: How Are We Doing?
British Columbia Ministry of Education
The Aboriginal "How are we Doing?" report provides information about Aboriginal students (including adults) performance in Public school. Readers should notice that there are changes to historical and trend data. Once a student has self-identified as being of Aboriginal ancestry, the student is included in all report outcomes for aboriginal students. This approach ensures a consistent methodology for identifying Aboriginal students across years, as students may self identify as Aboriginal on some enrollments and not on others. Guidelines and tips for reviewing student achievement data include: (1) Use multiple sources of information whenever possible; (2) Ensure comparability of information from different sources; (3) Consider participation rates; (4) Be cautious of data representing small numbers of students; and (5) Review data trends. The sections of this report include the following: (1) Introduction; (2) Student and District Context (Kindergarten-Grade 12) 2013/14-2017/18; (3) Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA) Grades 4 and 7, 2013/14-2017/18; (4) Required Examination Results, 2013/14-2017/18; (5) Transitions, 2012/13-2017/18; (6) School Completion, 2013/14-2017/18; (7) Education Experiences of Children in Care, 2013/14-2017/18; (8) Post Secondary Transitions, 2013/14-2016/17; (9) Student Learning Survey Results, 2013/14-2017/18; and (10) Glossary.
