What are the advantages of the PSP Survey?
• Data is current at the time it is used • Data is provided directly by the families served by each school participating in the survey • Data is confidential, no-one within the school sees the data, no-one who analyses the data knows who it comes from • Data is based on a number of variables, appropriate for educational purposes • Analysis applied to the data to construct a socio-economic status index of school communities is rigorous.
