Schools refer to the number of schools according to the level of education it offers.
For instance, a school which offers both elementary and secondary levels is

schools of SCUs, CHED and TESDA supervised schools are included
Teachers refer to the number of teachers holding position titles of Master Teachers I-
II and Teachers I-III. The data are based on Basic Education Information System –

Performance Indicators refer to the several key indicators that can be computed and
utilized for evaluating the educational system’s performance at various levels.
Gross Enrolment Rate refers to the total enrolment in a given level of education as a
percentage of the population which according to national regulations should be
enrolled at this level, i.e., age 6-11 for elementary and 12-15 for secondary. It is
a measure of the “capacity” of a region’s elementary and secondary schools.
Participation Rate or Net Enrolment Rate is the ratio between the enrolment in the
school-age range to the total population of that age range.
Cohort Survival Rate is the proportion of enrolees at the beginning grade or year who
reach the final grade or year at the end of the required number of years of
study.
Completion Rate is the percentage of first year entrants in a level of education who
complete/finish the level in accordance with the required number of years of as of September 23, 2010
study.
Dropout Rate or School Leavers Rate is the proportion of pupils/students who leave
school during the year as well as those who complete the grade/year level but
fail to enrol in the next grade/year level the following school year to the total
number of pupils/students enrolled during the previous school year.
Transition Rate (from primary level to intermediate level, Grade IV to Grade V;
elementary to secondary) is the percentage of pupils who graduate from one
level of education and move on to the next higher level.
National Achievement Rate refers to the degree of performance in different subject
areas in various levels of education.
Mean Percentage Score (MPS) indicates the ratio between the number of correctly
answered items and the total number of test questions or the percentage of
correctly answered items in a test.
Teacher-Pupil/Student Ratio is the proportion of the enrolment at a certain level of
