杰森（Jason）网站的最近访问者之一最近提出了有关多年来Eastwood Public Sc​​hool排名波动的问题。

下表显示了2015年至2019年的排名和相关百分比。还要注意的一点是，该百分比是基于澳大利亚全国排名第一的小学，而与所讨论的学年的公校或私校无关。我只包括公立学校的比较，以使比较更容易进行。

如您所见，该百分比实际上非常稳定，远远超出了我的预期。在这种情况下，排名的波动几乎全部取决于相关年份其他学校的表现。实际上，排名11或29的学业成绩差异不大。有些排名变化是正常现象，而且是可以预期的，除非您是倾向于始终占据头等位置的前几所学校。

小学政府公立学校的入学是根据学区来确定的，因此，除非是最好学校的顶级学校之一，否则预计每年会有一些波动。

2019年全新南威尔士州和悉尼的中学排名（私校）。其结果是NAPLAN的7年级和9年级测试成绩的总和。需要注意的一件事是，列出的一些学校的入学人数非常少，因此结果可能无法可靠地反映出整个学校的表现，并且每年上也可能有很大的波动。这就是为什么我在这里也包括入学人数的原因，一些学校也有很大的入学人数，因为它们被归类为小学和中学组成部分的总和。还有一点要注意的是，该百分比是基于排名第一的中学，而与学校是公校还是私校无关。

There had been a lot of controversy with the NSW Selective High Schools and with a large number of articles plus opinions attack its existence, also whether it serves the intended purpose.

The main point of the attack is that Selective High Schools students are mainly from the high social-economical background rather than serving the general population as intend.

First, the main criteria published in the Myschool website is called ICSEA which is called Index of Community Socio-Educational Advantage, the main items in this index are parent’s education background and geographic location of the school. Whether the family is rich or poor has no direct bearing in this index. I have done a number of previous blog entries on this topic already, so I will not go into this in more detail.

Now, we got all these out of the way, you can view the articles on SMH which is called The Sydney suburbs sending the most students to selective schools.

NSW Department of Education’s own research that only 10 per cent of students in selective schools had parents who did not have post-school education.

There were also few students from the city’s richest suburbs such as Bellevue Hill, Double Bay or Milsons Point, suggesting families in those areas are still opting for private schools.

While selective schools have high rates of socio-educational advantage – which means students’ parents are educated, a key factor in schooling success – the figures show that does not necessarily equate to wealth.

Please note, what shown above is pretty much what anybody who had experience with selective high schools will tell you as well. This shows the students that study and apply themselves will get in rather than determine by how much money their parents have. We should be encouraging health and fair competitions, rather than create artificial access restriction that disadvantages one group or another.

For all the bad raps that standardized tests are getting these days, they are still the fairest and best way, for now, to provide opportunities to people that deserve them. That could be Selective High School tests and HSC or other similar tests.

We do not need to destroy what has up to now an avenue for children of middle-class parents to advance with their aspirations by crashing the existing selective high school systems. The reason why some parents are pushing their kids into selective high schools is that they themselves are a big beneficiary of education and understand what a good education can do for you.

As a society, we need to emphasise the benefit of education and continuingly promote it and never let up. Particularly with more automation entering Australia and the world, we will need more highly skilled people, a good and quality education is the only way to achieve that.
