A scaled mean of 25.0 (on a 1-unit basis) means that the candidature of the course was average, and hence that the course had average scaling. Courses with scaled means above 25.0 had above average scaling. The scaled means are liable to change, as the scaling process is carried out afresh each year. A scaled mean of 0 indicates that either the course was not taken in that year, or that the scaled mean was not published.
Can you be more specific? Which part of that paragraph are you unsure about? The scaled mean itself is simply the average scaled mark for a particular course - it is a measure of the academic ability of the candidature, and hence a measure of the course scaling.
