  2. The source of data for this indicator from 2003 to 2009 was school roll returns, while for 2010 the data source has changed to ENROL, which is an electronic real-time enrolment system used by schools and likely to provide more accurate data for this measure.
  3. The Education Region area of the school each Year 1 student was attending.
  4. The number of NZAID and Foreign Fee Paying Students, Health Camp Students, and students whose attendance is not known as been excluded (from both the numerator and denominator) when calculating participation rates.
  5. Not applicable includes the Correspondence School and other schools which cover multiple Eduction Region areas.
  6. 'n' implies that there were no Year 1 students with known attendance for this category.

Note:
  1. The source for this data changed in 2010.  As 2010 data is not directly comparable with earlier years, a revised series has been created.  The target has also been revised. The original target was "Increase the percentage of Māori entrant school children who have participated in childhood education from 90% in 2006 to 95% by 2012."

Young People Engaged in Learning (particularly in Years 9 and 10)

Target:  Increase Māori school leavers qualified to attend university from 14.8% in 2006 to 30% by 2012.

  3. * Due to methodological changes in the allocation of attainment levels for 2004 leavers achieving a qualification between little or no formal attainment and UE standard, the percentages of leavers with at least NCEA Level 2 in 2004 is not comparable with other years and has been replaced with an average of 2003 and 2005 results.

Notes: 
  1. The Correspondence School is included in all of the above figures
  2. There are only a relatively small number of school leavers from Māori immersion schools.  With such a small number of leavers, year-on-year actual percentages can vary substantially
  3.  just by random fluctuation (margin of error ~ 4-5%).  Together with the uncertainty around forecasts, and the fact that the number of school leavers from these schools has almost doubled
  4. since 2000, the forecast rates for school leavers with UE Standard from Māori immersion schools should be treated with caution.
  5. * Estimated Target based on most recent Non-Māori figure.
