Secondary school statistics
Secondary school results reports provide data on how schools perform in NCEA and other national qualifications.
You can generate reports to view data for individual schools, groups of schools, and nationally. Also assessments at one school or group of schools against another school or group of schools, relative performances of groups of students with different demographic characteristics e.g. boys and girls; comparing data across years (longitudinal analyses).
For more information about producing reports, and how to customise them, see How to create and print reports and Secondary statistics user manual.

Commentary on school statistics
New Zealand's national system of assessment and qualifications for secondary school students produces a great deal of information that can be used to monitor the performance of the school system itself, and of the diverse range of students who are engaged in senior secondary education.
In 2011 NZQA produced the its second annual statistics report - Annual Report on NCEA & New Zealand Scholarship Data & Statistics (2010). This report focuses on the 2010 assessments, but also summarises the activity and achievement of New Zealand's secondary school students since 2004.
