About 7,855 schools and Islamic Schools were determined as the sample during the accreditation period of 2018-2021. Quota stratified sampling was used as the sampling technique based on the period of accreditation years, and levels that were based on types and degrees of education unit.

Education units accredited A tend to be smaller in number than those with accredited C. (2) the quality distributions over four years were as follows; in 2018, the percentage of A-accredited units was 5.57% and the percentage of C-accredited units was 34.91%. In 2019, the percentage of A-accredited units was 11.12%, and the percentage of C-accredited units was 22.41%. The percentage of A-accredited units increased by 25% in 2020, similar to C rank.
