| dc.description.abstract | This chapter presents an attempt by a country to monitor the standards of biliteracy in a situation where English is the second official language. One of the questions asked was: How well can Year 2 (six- to seven-year old) pupils in Malta read, in Maltese and English? This was the subject of the first ever National Literacy Survey in Malta, carried out in March 1999. Virtually every child in the country born in 1992 was tested in both Maltese and English, using equivalent parallel tests, and complete data were gathered on 4554 children. Multilevel modelling was used as the main statistical approach. The full report of the survey is available in Mifsud, Milton, Brooks and Hutchison (2000). The use of the results as a basis for a school effectiveness or value-added study is discussed in Hutchison, Brooks, Mifsud and Milton. | en_GB |
