Notes: The Correspondence School is included in all of the above figures. Due to methodological changes in the allocation of attainment levels in 2004, for 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. These data are based on old paper-based definitions so may not equal the new ENROL-based results available from 2009 onwards.
