The Trend Report provides you with the ability to:
- ANALYSE changes between different surveys
- MEASURE the impact of policy or practise changes over time
- EXPLORE how different populations (e.g., by year or sex) contribute to the overall trend
How To Interpret the Trend Report
For each measure, a chart will display the following:
- displays the values for each survey snapshot and the difference between them;
- shows a line graph of the most recent survey results;
- allows you to hover your cursor over any point to view the exact value of that survey; and
- features a NSW Govt or replica school norm for comparison.
*The NSW Govt Norms are based on data collected from student surveys (primary & secondary) administered in SS1 2023. The Parent and Teacher norms are based on data collected from SS2 2023.
*The Replica School Norm for both primary and secondary has also been updated, however, these norms have been disabled due to the removal of the Socio-economic items in the student surveys.
You can change the information within the charts through the following options:
Compare - Compare current trends against the previous 2 years.
Sort - Sort by Largest increase and smallest increase.
Refine - Uncheck boxes to only show specific measures of interest.
