Community Composition Matters Why

ICSEA is not a quality ranking

ICSEA measures the community a school serves not how well the school teaches. Two schools with identical ICSEA scores can have dramatically different teaching quality, culture, and outcomes. ICSEA is context, not verdict.

SEIFA complements ICSEA

Seifa IRSD measures the geographic area around the school (from Census data). It provides a complementary view especially useful for understanding schools in gentrifying or rapidly changing neighborhoods where ICSEA may lag behind the on-the-ground reality
