Teaching and learning

The Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY) program studies the progress of several groups of young Australians as they move from school into post-secondary education and work. In 1996, the schools from which the 1995 cohort was drawn, took part in a survey to collect information about the features and programs of schools, as well as features of teachers and teaching, which might influence the progress of students in their school and in their later work careers. The survey involved two questionnaires: (1) a school questionnaire to be completed by the principal (or other school representative) that collected information on school programs, organisation and timetables and (2) a questionnaire to a sample of 10 Year 10 teachers. This document is the codebook for the school survey.
