Data Tables
Note: Time series discontinuities
From 2002, the school leaver data collection was changed as a result of the introduction of NCEA in 2002.
In 2005, four changes were made to the school leaver data collection methodology:
- University Entrance was collected as an additional variable
- Students whose highest attainment was in a non-NQF qualification are now collected separately from those with NQF qualifications
- Students whose highest attainment was 1-13 credits at levels 2 or 3 (without having completed the previous level) are now considered to have little or no formal attainment
- All historical attanment categories have been discontinued
Data for the attainment of NCEA level 3 and higher, and for leavers with low or no attainment is comparable with 2004 and earlier years. However, as a result of the changes listed above, other attainment levels are not comparable between 2004 and 2005.
