Gross Enrolment Ratio in Early Childhood Development

Programs

This indicator measures the general level of participation of

young children in early childhood development programs. It
indicates the capacity of the education system to prepare young
children for elementary education. The system generates this
indicator only up to the level of the legislative districts and
above.

Gross Enrolment Ratio
The indicator is used to show the general level of participation
in primary education. It is used in place of the Net Enrolment
Ratio when data on enrolment by single years of age is not
available. It can also be used together with the Net Enrolment
Ratio to measure the extent of over-aged and under-aged
enrolment. The system generates this indicator up to the level
of the legislative districts and above

 Cohort Survival Rate to Grade VI/Year IV
The Cohort Survival Rate computes the
percentage of a cohort of pupils/students
who are able to reach grade VI/Year IV. It is
used to assess the internal efficiency and
“wastage” in education. This indicator is
vulnerable to migration and caution should
be used in computing at the school level.
The system adopted the reconstructed cohort method, shown below, in calculating
the Cohort Survival rate:
Step 1. Compute the Promotion and Repetition Rates for a particular area.

Gr 1 Gr 2 Gr 3 Gr 4 Gr 5 Gr 6

Promotion Rate 82.47% 90.18% 93.11% 93.22% 92.79% 96.32%

Repetition Rate 5.39% 3.29% 2.27% 1.60% 1.41% 0.37%

 Step 2 & 3. Compute the number of promotees up to grade 6
using the promotion rates for the respective grade/year
levels. Compute the number of pupils/students in grade/year
1 who repeat once, twice, up to 6 times.

Promoted Promoted Promoted Promoted Promoted

to Gr 2 to Gr 3 to Gr 4 to Gr 5 to Gr 6
Cohort with no repetition SY N 1,000.00 824.70 743.74 692.53 645.58 599.05
Cohort repeating once SY N+1 53.92
Cohort repeating twice SY N+2 2.91 Promoted Cohort Gr X x Promotion Rate Gr X-1
Cohort repeating thrice SY N+3 0.16
Cohort repeating four times SY N+4 0.01
Repeated Cohort Gr 1 x Repetition Rate Gr 1
Cohort repeating five times SY N+5 0.00
Cohort repeating six times SY N+6 0.00
 Step 4. Add the repeaters in the previous grade
level who were promoted with the pupils in the
current grade level who repeated.

Promoted Promoted Promoted Promoted Promoted

to Gr 2 to Gr 3 to Gr 4 to Gr 5 to Gr 6
Cohort with no repetition SY N 1,000.00 824.70 743.74 692.53 645.58 599.05
Cohort repeating once SY N+1 53.92 71.62 81.49 86.96 90.17 85.87
Cohort repeating twice SY N+2 2.91 4.76 6.14 7.11 7.90 7.65
Cohort repeating thrice SY N+3 0.16 0.29 0.40 0.48 0.56 0.55
Cohort repeating four times SY N+4 0.01 0.02 0.02 0.03 0.04 0.04
Cohort repeating five times SY N+5 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
Cohort repeating six times SY N+6 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
(Repeated Cohort Gr X-1 x Promotion Rate Gr X-1)
+ (Promoted Cohort Gr X x Repition Rate Gr X)
Step 5-7. Calculate the total for each grade level to obtain
the pupil-years. Multiply the pupil-years with the
respective promotion rate to get the total promotees
(including repeaters). Calculate the reconstructed cohort
survival rate for each grade level by dividing the Total
Promotees Gr X-1 (including repeaters) with the original
cohort of 1000.

Gr 1 Gr 2 Gr 3 Gr 4 Gr 5 Gr 6
Pupil-years 1,057.00 901.37 831.79 787.11 744.26 693.15
Total Promotees (including repeaters) 871.70 812.89 774.52 733.76 690.61 667.65
Reconstructed Cohort Survival Rate 100.00% 87.17% 81.29% 77.45% 73.38% 69.06%
Promotion Rate
The Promotion Rate assesses the extent of pupils/students
who are promoted to the next grade/year level. The grade
6/year 4 promotion rate is the graduation rate for the
elementary / secondary level. The computation used in the
BEIS is slightly different from the official EFA formula since
it utilizes the reported number of promotees rather than
computing for the promotees using the present enrolment
and the previous school year enrolment.

Elementary: Secondary:

Promotees Gr X, SY N Promotees Yr X, SY N
-------------------------- x 100 -------------------------- x 100

Repetition Rate
This is an EFA indicator which determines the
magnitude of pupils/students who repeat a
grade/year level.

_____ x 100%
152
= 0.0197 (100)
= 1.97
School Leaver Rate
School Leaver Rate is the EFA measure for dropout
rate. It covers both pupils/students who do not finish
a particular grade/year level as well as those who
finish but fail to enroll in the next grade/year level the
following school year. It is theoretically more
comprehensive than Simple Dropout Rate but
becomes unreliable in areas with substantial
migration. Care should be exercised in using this
indicator at the level of the Division, Municipal and
Legislative Districts. The system does not allow use
of School Leaver Rate at the school level where it is
very likely to result in a misleading measure of
dropout rate.
School Leaver Rate = 1 - Promotion Rate - Repetition Rate

Simple Dropout Rate
The Simple Dropout Rate calculates the percentage of
pupils/students who do not finish a particular
grade/year level. It does not capture pupils/students
who finish a grade/year level but do not enroll in the
next grade/year level the following school year.

Transition Rate
The indicator assesses the extent by which pupils are
able to move to the next higher level of education (i.e.
primary to intermediate and elementary to secondary).
Care should be exercised in using this indicator at the
level of the Division, Municipal and Legislative Districts
where migration can increase or reduce the results of
the indicator. It is not calculated at the school level for
this reason.

Enrolment Gr 4, SY N-1 -Previous SY March 31 Enrolment + Dropouts
Graduates Gr 6, SY N-1 -Previous SY Promotees/Graduates
Completion Rate
The Completion Rate measures the percentage of
grade/year 1 entrants who graduate in
elementary/secondary education. It is available only up
to the division level and above. Data for grade/year 1
are based on the predecessor of BEIS, the Unified
Data Gathering System (UDGS), which did not have
any validation procedures and did not monitor the
completeness of the data submitted.

who failed a given grade/year level.

Retention Rate
The Retention Rate determines the degree of
pupils/students in a particular school year who continue to
be in school in the succeeding year. This indicator is also
vulnerable to migration and is not advisable to compute at
the school level.
