Abstract

Studies of school effectiveness are briefly reviewed, pointing to the need to study effectiveness for sub-groups within each school as well as overall. The results of a multilevel analysis of a large dataset covering the years 1985, 1986 and 1987 and using examination performance as the outcome measure are presented, revealing substantial differences between ethnic groups. The findings also show that the effectiveness of a school varies along several dimensions, and that there is also variation over time. The implications of these findings are discussed.
