Interviewer instructions
Questions 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 in this section should be asked to all persons,
irrespective of age. Persons not attending school/classes at Q3.2 are required to
proceed to Q3.6, all persons attending school presently therefore are required to
answer questions Q3.1 to Q3.13. If a person can read but cannot write, he/she is
considered illiterate and the proper response is NO. This SLC/HBS will not include
rigorous testing of literacy; interviewers will have to use their judgment and
information from the respondent to assess each person. Literacy can be in any
language, not just the main or official language, provided it is commonly used in a
written form.
Ques 3.4, 3.5
Please record the highest grade completed by the respondent. Only after sufficient
probing will an interviewer accept a response of “don’t know”.
Because the education system has changed in St Lucia, both the former and current
types of grades are included. Tertiary classifications have been made very detailed
to allow for more detail in the collection of this information and to allow where
possible for an assessment to be made of the various tertiary programmes currently
undertaken at the main institution on the island.
