You can measure the diversity and of each and the impact on the quality of racial and religious tolerance that exist between the two. Here's an article that highlights the importance of the latter:

All of the above have measurement tools.

improvement over time in a range of generic skills such as literacy, numeracy, science conceptualisation, critical thinking

well being,

self efficacy,

change in proportion of growth to fixed mindset in the student population,

WRT generic skills, Queensland Australia has been using a 'Core Skills Test' for many years that does measure generic skills to some extent. It is culturally dependant but could be translatable.

Hi Thomas

There are some excellent measures suggested. I wonder though what the schools themselves would define as 'good' and 'success'...perhaps the rich school may learn fro the poor? And is rich /poor purely a financial description?

Perhaps other measures may be teacher satisfaction and parent satisfaction.

I'm sure you already have this sorted but just wondered.

Good point about rich/poor Michael. I admit to reading 'low SES' into the 'poor' descriptor but obviously could be mistaken. Not that there is much change to my suggestions however.

Thomas, I also thought of 'sustainable continuous improvement' agenda as a valuable measurable. It would also be done via questionnaires and observations.
