Student performance is largely the result of teacher performance. The bulk of teachers teaching in the last 16 years were hired BEFORE the liberals came to power. ie. There is a lag in results... 

One thing that is clear is that performance (eg. approx low 80% reading at grade level) hasn't improved much in the last 16 yrs. 

Improvement takes ministry leadership and energy which seemed lacking except for George Abbot's brief term as minister. 

The prov Liberal and Federal Conservative gov't social policies (eg. welfare, minimum wage, 1st nations support) may have contributed to this lack of  progress.
