The Consolidated State Performance Report (CSPR) is the required annual reporting tool for each State, Bureau of Indian Education, District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico as authorized under Section 9303 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by the No Child Left behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). The Department uses the information derived from the CSPR to : (1) monitor and report its progress in meeting Strategic Plan goals; (2) assess and report individual program performance, including GPRA performance measures; (3) monitor States' implementation of No Child Left Behind and the extent to which States are meeting programs and accountability goals;(4)to identify areas for technical assistance to States and overall program improvement; and (5) to inform other reporting and program evaluation requirements specific to individual programs and including the Secretary's Annual State Report to Congress on No Child Left Behind. Specific to this submission, which requests the addition of new items to meet statutory and regulatory reporting requirements, Title I monitoring teams and other ED officials will use these data to ensure that State Educational Agencies, Local Educational Agencies, and schools implement science assessment requirements and school improvement activities in accordance with ESEA statute and regulations.

The total CSPR burden estimate has decreased to 11,811 hours for 2011-12 and 2012-13 (there was a decrease to the state burden and the LEA burden is unchanged).
The program changes in burden are due to the additions, modifications, and deletions of questions in the CSPR collection. Generally, questions have been added or modified due to requests from the field and from Congress, to improve the quality and usefulness of information being collected, to better inform monitoring and technical assistance efforts, and to guide program improvement efforts. Questions have been deleted to reduce burden, streamline requirements, eliminate duplication, and remove questions that no longer provided useful enough information to justify their collection. Over all, the reduced burden from the deletions offset the burden from the additions over the two reporting years. The average burden for this data collection is 11,811, for a net decrease of -53 hours.
