Problems in Comparing Examination Attainment in Selective and Comprehensive Secondary Schools.
Fogelman, Ken
Oxford Review of Education, v10 n1 p33-43 1984
Three British studies recently compared the examination results of pupils from comprehensive schools with those of selective schools. Each study reached somewhat contrasting conclusions. Major differences among the studies are discussed in order to clarify reasons for the contrasting interpretations and to illustrate the major difficulties in research of this kind. (RM)
