Acknowledgements
We would like to thank the students, parents, teachers and principals who gave of their time to participate in the 2000 OECD PISA study and the Youth in Transition Survey. The support for this Federal-Provincial collaborative project provided by members of the PISA-YITS Steering Committee and by the coordinators in each participating Ministry or Department of Education during all steps of the study is gratefully acknowledged.
The report has benefited from the input and comments of reviewers, especially those in provincial Ministries and Departments of Education, the Council of Ministers of Education Canada, Human Resources Development Canada and Statistics Canada. The staff of the Centre for Education Statistics at Statistics Canada, whose tireless efforts ensured a high standard of quality, are appreciated. A very special thank you is extended to Danielle Baum for her indispensable help in preparing the manuscript for publication.
