我们探讨了英国中学结束时小学生成绩的变化。该文件将所有学校和这些学校内所有学生的数据联系起来，以分析学校在解释这一差异方面所起的作用。我们分析了一些不同的学生成就指标，包括小学和中学教育结束之间的增值和中学教育结束时的成就水平。我们审查了作为学校会计框架重点的指标，以及其他不直接作为学校评估一部分的指标。我们发现，学校只占学生成绩差异的一小部分，学校解释的差异程度对所用的学生成绩衡量标准很敏感。此外，我们发现，大多数可解释的学校水平的成绩差异与学校作文有关。然而，学业成绩的大部分差异仍然无法解释，这引发了人们对哪些其他因素导致学校表现差异的疑问。
We explore the variation in pupil attainment at the end of secondary schooling in England. The paper links data on all schools and all pupils within these schools to analyse the role of the school in accounting for this variation. We analyse a number of different indicators of pupil attainment including value added between the end of primary and secondary schooling and attainment levels at the end of secondary schooling. We examine indicators that were the focus of the school accounting framework as well as other indicators that were not directly part of how schools were assessed. We show that schools account for a minority of the variance in pupil attainment, and the extent of the variation accounted for by the school is sensitive to the measure of pupil attainment used. In addition, we find that the majority of the explained school-level variance in attainment is related to school composition. However, most of the variance in attainment remains unexplained, raising questions about what other factors contribute to the variation in school performance.
