Programme Placement Related to Selected Countries of Birth and Selected Languages. (Further Every Student Survey Analyses).
Wright, E. N.
A statistical analysis of the Every Student Survey (1970) made in Canada examines language and occupational categories of students involved in current ESL programs. The initial analysis of the results indicates that students whose parents held low-income jobs are more likely to be found in special vocational and two-year programs than children whose parents held high-income jobs. Students of English as a second language were determined to be twice as likely to have parents in the lower occupation categories as children who learned English as a mother tongue. This report presents 10 tables of statistical data which further refine the initial analysis of the survey. (RL)
