Education information

Arnold I. Szepesi
Global Direct Sales Manager in EHL Hospitality Business School

Regarding boarding school rankings, what criteria are used, and can we really trust them nowadays?

Honestly, I'm not the biggest advocate for educational rankings. While they have their uses, I believe they often lead to more confusion and errors than benefits. These rankings typically focus on final grades, putting pressure on teachers to ensure high average scores and, in turn, stressing students out before exams. I'm not against exams per se, but I do advocate for a more rounded, project-based approach with ongoing assessment. After all, some students might struggle with exams but excel in practical, real-world applications of their knowledge.

Most rankings feel quite subjective. Ideally, they should consider factors like student satisfaction, post-secondary education opportunities, semester performance, faculty characteristics, and much more. But remember, this is just my take.
