Data Notes:

Data is collected mid-year (census date: first Friday in August) from NSW government schools as per National Schools Statistics Collection (NSSC).

From 2020, students in mainstream support classes are reported by their underlying grade of enrolment. Previously, students in support classes in mainstream schools were not included.

Students in schools for specific purposes (SSPs) are not included.

Students in distance education and Intensive English Centres are included with their appropriate grade levels.

OC classes are not included in secondary students. IEC students are included.

In most scholastic years there are a small number of students in atypical age groups. For students under 18 years, these have been included in the nearest band. This is indicated with an asterisk. As a result, the sum of each row may not equal the totals reported. See relevant tables in Statistical Bulletin for more details.
