Specific Recommendations from Atkinson Review for Education
Improve the measurement of inputs Move towards an output based-approach Develop measures which track changes in
quality Extend coverage across whole of UK
![Page 4: Proposed New Education Measure for Scottish GVA Series Richard Murray.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649f155503460f94c29dab/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Current Measure of Education Output
Different methodology for measuring education in Scottish & UK GDP series
Scottish GDP based on input=output approach using employment data
UK measure based on pupil numbers adjusted by GCSE performance

Section 2: New Quality-adjusted Output Measure for Education
![Page 6: Proposed New Education Measure for Scottish GVA Series Richard Murray.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649f155503460f94c29dab/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Quantity & Quality Dimension of Output
Quantity of output to be measured by the number of pupils attending school
Quality dimension to reflect changes in the quality of education received by pupils
![Page 7: Proposed New Education Measure for Scottish GVA Series Richard Murray.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649f155503460f94c29dab/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Rationale for Adjusting for Quality
Why adjust for quality?– To capture improvements in the education pupils
receive
How do you measure quality?– Ideally, the quality of teaching pupils receive– Difficult to measure this, though attainment
provides a useful proxy
![Page 8: Proposed New Education Measure for Scottish GVA Series Richard Murray.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649f155503460f94c29dab/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Possible Attainment-based Approaches
Threshold basis Average Points Scored Value-added approach Combined threshold approach

Combined Threshold Approach
Aim to capture wide spectrum of attainment a pupil receives by end of secondary education
3 categories which capture all levels of attainment at school
Category 1 Highers & Advanced Highers
Category 2 Standard Grades (Credit level)
Category 3 Standard Grades (General & Foundation level)

Weighting the Different Levels of Attainment
Each category of attainment needs to be given a weight, relative to its contribution to total output
Inappropriate to use cost weights Expected future earnings provides a proxy
for the benefit pupils receive from education
![Page 12: Proposed New Education Measure for Scottish GVA Series Richard Murray.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062408/56649f155503460f94c29dab/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Expected Future Earnings by Highest Qualification
Results show that higher qualifications lead to higher expected future earnings
Weightings of 48: 32: 20 for Categories 1: 2: 3
Expected future earnings =
Average earnings by highest qualification
Employment rate by highest qualification

Quality-adjusted Output Index
Methodology
Step 1: Differentiate S6 pupils by attainment & apply to all
pupils
Step 2: Apply a weight (based on expected future earnings) to
the attainment categories
Step 3: Calculate the weighted total & convert to index

Sensitivity Analysis
Examined different combinations of qualifications
Applied different weights by attributing part of the future earnings associated with those who go on to university
Overall, little impact on quality-adjusted output index

Limitations of New Measure
Unable to track changes in quality across each year group
Will take a number of years before investment influences the measure
Wider benefits of education are excluded Possibly not giving enough weight to high
attainment category
