States and territories have different school starting ages. Years of schooling is an estimate of theaverage time students had spent in schooling at the time of testing.

A student is considered to be 'Indigenous' if he or she identifies as being of Aboriginal and/or TorresStrait Islander origin. Students for whom Indigenous status was not stated are not included in thesecalculations. The method used to identify Indigenous students varies across jurisdictions.

Proportion of year 3 students who achieved at or above the nationalminimum standard for reading, 2009 (per cent) (a), (b)

The achievement percentages reported in this table include 95 per cent confidence intervals (forexample, 80.0 per cent ± 2.7 per cent).

Exempt students were not assessed and are deemed not to have met the national minimum standard.The proportion of absent and withdrawn students varies across jurisdictions, as shown in table 4A.16.Readers are urged to be cautious when comparing results.

The average age of students was calculated from the date of birth provided by each State and Territory.

Absent/withdrawnAssessed

A student is considered to be 'Indigenous' if he or she identifies as being of Aboriginal and/or TorresStrait Islander origin. Students for whom Indigenous status was not stated are not included in thesecalculations. The method used to identify Indigenous students varies across jurisdictions.

MCEECDYA (2009), 2009 National Assessment Program — Literacy and Numeracy:Achievement in Reading, Writing, Language Conventions and Numeracy, Melbourne; 2011Report, table 4A.64.

Exempt students were not assessed and are considered not to have met the national minimumstandard. Students with a language background other than English, who arrived from overseas lessthan a year before the tests, and students with significant intellectual disabilities may be exemptedfrom testing.

The percentages of students represented in this table have been rounded and may not sum to 100.

Source : ACARA (2010), National Assessment Program - Science Literacy Year 6, 2009, Sydney; 2011 Report, table 4A.102.

Proportion of year 6 students achieving at or above the proficientstandard in science literacy, by equity group (per cent) (a), (b), (c)

The achievement percentages reported in this table include 95 per cent confidence intervals (forexample, 80.0 per cent ± 2.7 per cent).

Minimum standards, such as the national minimum standards which are used for reporting NAPLANresults, have not been set for science literacy. The standard for science literacy is set at proficiency level3.2 (of levels 1 to 4 or above) a challenging but reasonable level of performance, with students needingto demonstrate more than minimal or elementary skills to be regarded as reaching it. Data represent theproportion of students at or above the proficient standard.

na Not available.

The proficiency of the LBOTE sub-group, even nationally, was not calculated for 2006 because ofomissions and inconsistencies in the data.

Results for 2009 in this table are directly comparable with 2006. 2003 results were rescaled to 2006 andthese rescaled data were included in the 2009 and 2010 Reports.

Non-Indigenous does not include those persons whose Indigenous status is unknown or not stated.

Level 3 or above can be described as a level of achievement that is reasonably challenging and whichrequires students to demonstrate more than minimal or elementary skills to be regarded as reaching it.

These data are from assessments conducted for the Programme for International Student Assessment(PISA). Reading literacy was the major domain tested in the PISA 2000 survey and subsequent PISAsurveys for reading literacy may be compared with the 2000 survey. PISA 2000 involved sampleassessment of approximately 2.3 per cent of 15 year old Australian secondary school students. PISA2003 involved sample assessment of approximately 6.5 per cent of 15 year old Australian secondaryschool students. PISA 2006 involved sample assessment of approximately 6.0 per cent of 15 year oldAustralian Secondary school students. PISA 2009 involved sample assessment of approximately 5.9per cent of 15 year old Australian Secondary school students. For further information on PISA 2000,PISA 2003, PISA 2006 and PISA 2009, see http://www.acer.edu.au/ozpisa/reports.

The achievement percentages reported in this table include 95 per cent confidence intervals (forexample, 80.0 per cent ± 2.7 per cent).

Two measures are used by the OECD to represent elements of socioeconomic background. One isthe highest level of the father’s and mother’s occupation (known as HISEI), which is coded inaccordance with the International Standard Classification of Occupations. The other measure is theindex of economic, social and cultural status (ESCS), which was created to capture the wider aspectsof a student’s family and home background. The ESCS is based on students’ responses on theirparents’ occupations; the highest level of education of the father and mother converted into years ofschooling; the number of books in the home; and access to home educational and cultural resources.The measure in this table refers to the lowest ESCS quartile.

The MCEECDYA Schools Geographic Location Classification was used to classify the location of theschool. Students from schools in remote and very remote areas were classified as geographicallyremote students.

Source : ABS 2010, Schools Australia 2009 , Cat. no. 4221.0; ABS (unpublished) Schools Australia 2009;2011 Report, table 4A.125.

The small number of Indigenous students in some jurisdictions (Tasmania and the ACT) can result inlarge fluctuations in the apparent retention rates when disaggregated by sex and school sectors.

The exclusion of part time students from standard apparent retention rate calculations has particularimplications for the interpretation of results for SA and Tasmania.

The apparent retention rate is the percentage of full time students who continued to years 10, 11 and 12from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling.

Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Students for whom Indigenous status is not stated arenot included in the data for 'Non-Indigenous students', but are included in the data for 'All students'.Consequently, the number of Indigenous students counted in the Indigenous rates may beunderrepresented in some jurisdictions.

Retention rates can exceed 100 per cent for a variety of reasons, including student transfers betweengovernment and non-government schools occurring after the base year.

Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates.

The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is from year 8 to year 10 or 12 forQueensland, WA and SA and from year 7 to 10 or 12 for all other jurisdictions. The apparent retentionrate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. Theapparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued toyear 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers.

The exclusion of part time students from standard apparent retention rate calculations has particularimplications for the interpretation of results for SA and Tasmania.

Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous studentscounted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whomIndigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However,these students are included in the figures for 'All students'.

Data for WA have been affected by changes in scope and coverage over time.

Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion hasparticular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary studentsare ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but in 2008 theNT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered wheninterpreting these data.

The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is from year 8 to year 10 or 12 forQueensland, WA and SA and from year 7 to 10 or 12 for all other jurisdictions. The apparent retentionrate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. Theapparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued toyear 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers.

The exclusion of part time students from standard apparent retention rate calculations has particularimplications for the interpretation of results for SA and Tasmania.

Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous studentscounted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whomIndigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However,these students are included in the figures for 'All students'.

Data for WA have been affected by changes in scope and coverage over time.

Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion hasparticular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary studentsare ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but in 2008 theNT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered wheninterpreting these data.

The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is from year 8 to year 10 or 12 forQueensland, WA and SA and from year 7 to 10 or 12 for all other jurisdictions. The apparent retentionrate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. Theapparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued toyear 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers.

The exclusion of part time students from standard apparent retention rate calculations has particularimplications for the interpretation of results for SA and Tasmania.

Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous studentscounted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whomIndigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However,these students are included in the figures for 'All students'.

Data for WA have been affected by changes in scope and coverage over time.

Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion hasparticular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary studentsare ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but in 2008 theNT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered wheninterpreting these data.
