 ........................................................................ 144 vii Foreword from the Minister of Education National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs The Ministry of Education, National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs continues to produce its annual Education Statistical Digest so that our various stakeholders have a rich source of educational data to use for research and other purposes.
The 2015-2016 Education Statistical Digest captures data on the education sector in St. Vincent and the Grenadines from the pre-primary level to the tertiary level.

Despite the many challenges, the education system continues to see improvements in the performance of our students at all levels.
As Minister of Education, National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs, I am elated that we are able to once again produce our annual Education Statistical Digest that contains pertinent statistical data on the education system in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

It is our hope that stakeholders will find the information useful as they peruse this publication.

We welcome your comments and suggestions on how we can improve future publications.
Finally, I commend all of the persons who contributed to this edition of the digest.

Special thanks to the principals and teachers of the various schools who supplied most of the data to facilitate the process.

Your invaluable contribution is much appreciated.


Honourable St. Clair Prince Minister of Education, National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs viii Message from the Permanent Secretary- Mrs. Morine Williams The Government of St. Vincent and the Grenadines continues to invest annually between 17-20% of its budgetary allocation to education.
This substantial investment in education is hoped to provide greater access to all learners, across the different sectors from early childhood to adult education.

It is our aim to develop our islands’ human resources, through the sustainable provision of quality learning opportunities for all, in order to equip our people with the required values, attitudes, levels of skills and knowledge necessary for creating and maintaining a productive, innovative and harmonious society.
The improvement of learning outcomes has been a priority area for the Ministry of Education, National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs and will continue to be given priority in 2017.

The Ministry will also continue to deliver education reforms in five core areas that evidence shows will lead to better outcomes: quality teaching, quality learning, empowered school leadership, meeting students’ needs, greater transparency and accountability.
The Ministry will also focus on improving the performance of students at all levels, including targeted groups, with a particular emphasis on students from disadvantaged backgrounds in 2017.

The collection of quantitative data cannot be over stated.
It is an imperative to inform local policies, forms the basis for comparative analysis with our neighbouring sister states in the OECS Digest, and the monitoring of the progress made in the implementation of the OECS Education Sector Strategy (OESS), while the Global Monitoring Report provides an international comparison.
Our analysis of the data also guides donors and bilateral partners as to the extent of or impact of interventions previously undertaken, determine the best course of action and seek to continuously adhere to evidenced based decision making manner of operation.

ix Message from the Chief Education Officer (Ag.)

- Ms. Beverly Neptune Today, parents and other stakeholders are demanding more accountability from their schools.
Their increased attention to school performance and in particular, the progress of the children, has placed greater demands on the education system.

Consequently, our education system is required to provide parents and other partners with reliable data sets thereby enabling them to make informed decisions.

The education system in St. Vincent and the Grenadines and the rest of the Caribbean Region is becoming increasingly reliant on data usage for evidenced based decision making.
Therefore as leaders in the Ministry of Education, we must be able to clearly articulate to parents, donors and other stakeholders what has been revealed to us through our data analysis and consequently why we have embarked on our respective courses of action.

We must ensure that our data collection remains timely and accurate in order to enable efficient prioritization of our goals, and also efficient monitoring of our progress to date.
It is my hope that through the publication of this Education Statistical Digest, we will be better able to share our on-going successes, as well as our challenges in a timely manner with our partners.

x Introduction The Education Statistical Digest is reflective of data from the 2000-2001 to 2015-2016 Academic Year.

Information for the period prior to the 2000-2001, is available in the 2012-2013 Digest online at www.stats.gov.vc or at www.education.gov.vc/education/ under the publications tab.
This document is prepared primarily by the Planning and Research Units within the Ministry of Education National Reconciliation and Ecclesiastical Affairs in St. Vincent and the Grenadines with assistance from the other departments within the Ministry.
The Planning and Research Unit within the Ministry of Education expresses its deepest thanks to the Early Childhood Administrators, Primary Heads and Secondary Principals for their assistance in completing the Annual School Survey which in turn facilitated the production of this document.

We acknowledge that without your data submissions this objective would not be achieved and hence we pause again to say thanks.
While we cannot identify each person who contributed in one form or another, we wish to express our deepest gratitude to all those who assisted and make special mention of Mr. Anil Sutherland, who has worked tirelessly in providing student performance data, Mrs. Dixianne Richards who designed the cover page and last but not least Mrs. Jozene Franklyn and Ms. Tamira Browne, who facilitated the initial collation of the data from the institutions without which the preparation of this document would not have been possible and also for their assistance in editing the publication.
The 2015-2016 Digest provides data regarding teacher qualifications, education expenditure by level, enrolment in Early Childhood, Primary, Special Education, Secondary Levels, Technical Institutes and Post Secondary / Tertiary Education.

Of these, 118 are privately operated while the remaining nine are (9) government institutions.

Together, all 127 institutions cater for children between ages three to five years.

The overall enrolment for the 2015-2016 Academic year stood at 3487, which was an increase of 145 over the previous 3342 in 2014-2015.
There are currently 348 children enrolled in the nine government owned early childhood centres and another 3139 in the remaining 117 privately owned institutions which are managed by Church Boards, non-governmental organizations, community groups and other private entities.
This partnership between the government and private institutions to provide early quality care and development to all pre-schoolers is in keeping with the government’s thrust towards the achievement of universal access to Early Childhood Care and Development (ECCD).

Significant progress has been made towards the improvement of the quality of the teaching and learning process in this sector.
The government has provided assistance to upgrade the physical environment of a number of privately operated early childhood centres.

Also, the State continues to provide on-going training for preschool teachers and supervisors.

Additionally, the government provides an annual subvention to all privately operated early childhood centres with an enrolment of fifteen or more students.
The overall aim is to ensure that all preschool children access quality early childhood education at minimal or no cost to parents.

Cost reduction and improved access is of even more significance for those children residing in disadvantaged communities who would otherwise be unable to access early childhood services.

This section of the digest provides important data on the Early Childhood Sector for the academic year 2015-2016 on enrolment, staffing and their level of training.

This indicates a drop of 190 students below the 2014-2015 figure which stood at 13,363.

The declining primary enrolment, noticeable since 1995, is reflective of the overall decrease in population.

There are currently sixty eight (68) primary institutions of which 57 are public.

Eight (8) of these primary schools are in the Grenadines.

As stated in the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Population and Housing Census Report 2001 there was a decrease of 2.3% between 1991 and 2001.
Further analysis of this trend in the population can be facilitated from the 2012 Census Report.

Primary education continues to receive the largest share of the education recurrent budget with salaries, wages and allowances accounting for approximately 96% of the allocation.

The recurrent allocation for primary education in 2015 is $40,893,623.
The primary system continues to receive a sizable proportion of the budgetary allocation as the Ministry of Education strives to improve the quality of education throughout the sector.

The following section of the Statistical Digest provides data regarding student enrolment, student performance, the number of repeaters by institution, dropouts, the number of teachers in each institution and their qualifications as well as the expenditure for this sector.
Each of the above categories is further disaggregated by district, institution and gender as appropriate.

of Teachers 8 Pupil Teacher 3 90 Secondary Education Secondary Education in St. Vincent and the Grenadines is provided by 26 institutions, 19 of which are public.

The remaining seven schools are owned by churches but operate with substantial financial assistance from the Government.

These seven schools are referred to as Assisted Secondary (AS) schools.
Of the twenty-six (26) secondary schools, twenty-three (23) are situated on Mainland of St. Vincent and three (3) are in the Grenadines – two on Bequia in the Northern Grenadines and one on Union Island in the Southern Grenadines.

Twenty two secondary schools are co-educational.

There are two single-sex, all-male, secondary schools and two single-sex, all-female, secondary schools.

In 2015 students sat the Caribbean Primary Exit Assessment (CPEA) administered by the Caribbean Examination Council (CXC).
The CPEA replaces the national Common Entrance Examination (CEE) which previously determined which students obtained the chance to attend the secondary school of their choice.

However, all students in accordance with the policy of the Ministry of Education will be offered a place at a secondary school.

The criteria for secondary school selections will remain as established by the Ministry of Education.
In 2014, primary pupils performed quite commendably on the new assessment with an overall pass rate of 78.08%.

There was a subsequent improvement in 2015 to 80.90% and again in 2016 to 83.87%.
