Norm-referenced evaluation is most appropriate for large-scale system analysis because it compares the performance of a group of students to each other, which is useful for understanding overall trends and distributions within a large population. This type of evaluation is not primarily about what each student should know or be able to do (which would be criterion-referenced), nor is it necessarily the most common in physical education, recommended in all provincial PE curriculum guides, or more valid than criterion-referenced assessment.
