The Use of National Data Sets to Baseline Science Education Reform: Exploring Value-Added Approaches
Homer, Matt; Ryder, Jim; Donnelly, Jim – International Journal of Research & Method in Education, 2011
This paper uses data from the National Pupil Database to investigate the differences in "performance" across the range of science courses available following the 2006 Key Stage 4 (KS4) science reforms in England. This is a value-added exploration (from Key Stage 3 [KS3] to KS4) aimed not at the student or the school level, but rather at…
