本文评估了爱尔兰的二级学校（通常覆盖 12 至 18 岁的学生）在考试成绩、缺勤和学生潜在辍学这三种不同结果方面是否同样有效。本文使用了对爱尔兰 116 所学校的中学学生进行的大规模调查的数据。分析仅限于一组：1994 年参加国家标准化考试（初级证书）的 15-16 岁学生。多元多层次建模技术用于评估学生背景和学校教育因素对整体考试成绩、缺勤水平和考试后离校意愿的影响。学校效率的这些不同维度之间存在一定的一致性：学校的学生缺勤率和潜在辍学率较低，这提高了学生的学业进步。这些成果与更积极的师生关系和更积极的学术氛围相关......
This article assesses whether second-level schools in Ireland, typically covering pupils 12 to 18 years of age, are equally effective in relation to three different outcomes: examination performance, absenteeism and potential drop-out among pupils. The article uses data from a large-scale survey of second-level pupils in 116 schools in Ireland. Analysis is restricted to one cohort: pupils aged 15-16 years who took a nationally standardised examination, the Junior Certificate, in 1994. Multivariate multi-level modelling techniques are used to assess the impact of pupil background and schooling factors on overall examination performance, on absenteeism levels and on intentions to leave school after the exam. Some consistency is found among these different dimensions of school effectiveness: pupil absenteeism and potential drop-out rates are lower in schools which enhance academic progress among pupils. These outcomes are associated with more positive teacher-pupil relations and a more positive academic clim...
