The assessment results are conveyed to data users in terms of Mean Percentage Scores (MPS) and its descriptive equivalent for data utilization (e.g. intervention, remedial instruction, etc.) by school, division, regional and national levels. Specified below is the mastery/achievement level:
| Mastery/Achievement Level | |
| MPS | Descriptive Equivalent |
| 96-100% | Mastered |
| 86-95% | Closely Approximinating Mastery |
| 66-85% | Moving Towards Mastery |
| 35-65% | Average |
| 15-34% | Low |
| 5-14% | Very Low |
| 0-4% | Absolutely No Mastery |
As derived from the 2012 NAT results, a sizeable number of schools were categorized in the High Performing Schools (HPS) with an MPS of 86% and above, and in the Low Performing Schools with an MPS of 34% and below. The list of these schools which are grouped by division level will be provided by the NETRC.
Benchmarking on the best practices can be generated from the High Performing Schools which may form part of the intervention packages to be designed and provided to improve the performance of Low Performing Schools (LPS). Maximizing these identified strategies needs the concerted efforts of the concerned at the school and division levels.
