  1. Results of TSA 2005 A Report on the Basic Competencies of Students at the End of Key Stages 1 and 2 in Chinese, English and Mathematics

  2. Background to the TSA • The 2000 report of the Education Commission sets out detailed proposals for two kinds of basic competency assessment: • Student Assessment • System Assessment (now renamed ‘Territory-wide System Assessment’ (TSA)) • HKEAA commissioned to develop and administer both projects for EMB

  3. Purposes of the TSA • Provide the Government and schools with information on standards • Monitor the effectiveness of policies • School improvement

  4. Scope of TSA • Chinese Language, English Language and Mathematics • P3 in 2004 • P3 and P6 in 2005 • P3, P6 and S3 in 2006

  5. Administration of the Assessment • Written Assessments • 68,000 P3 students and 78,000 P6 students from some 700 schools • Conducted over 2 days in July • Students randomly assigned • Oral Assessment • 12 or 24 students randomly selected from each school • Conducted over two days in May • Two oral assessors

  6. Changes in 2005 • All written papers centrally marked by an external panel of experienced teachers • One internal and one external assessors to assess oral language

  7. Setting the Standards P3 standards • Set in 2004 using expert panels and international benchmarking P6 standards • Set using expert panels to fine tune standards established empirically with reference to P3 standards

  8. Territory-wide P3 Results

  9. Territory-wide P3 Results

  10. Territory-wide P6 Results

  11. P3 versus P6

  12. Absenteeism Rate • A survey was conducted in August 2005 on absenteeism rates in primary schools by the HKEAA. • The figures showed that the average daily absenteeism rate in the month of June was 1.5% but that the average absenteeism rate on the two days was 1.8%. • A total of 58 schools were found to have absenteeism rates of 5% or more for P.3 written assessments, while 50 schools were found to have absenteeism rates of 5% or more for P.6 written assessments.

  13. Absenteeism Rate • Based on a worst-case scenario in which all absences over 1.5% were of students who would have failed to achieve basic competency • The maximum distortion in the territory-wide estimates of the percent meeting the standard – around 0.3% for P.6 and around 0.6% for P.3.

  14. Absenteeism Rate • Schools with absenteeism rates of 5% or more may not truly reflect the percentages had they been in full attendance. • Hence, these results are not recommended as the sole indicators for the development of learning and teaching programme.

  15. Confidentiality • EMB and HKEAA will maintain confidentiality of individual schools’ results at all times. • School results are for school improvement purposes. • Schools will be able to access their own results electronically via the internet, using confidentiality protocols.
