A briefly seen headline tells me that the latest results show that 65% of Australian school kids are better than average.

We are indeed a lucky country to have such gifted children.

we mean if 999999 kids score 100 and 1 kid scores 99 then 100% of them are above at least one form of central measure

A quick search on the latest NAPLAN results tells me that things are getting worse and they are getting better and they are about the same.

So that’s alright then.
