Government school student attendance rates by gender, indigenous status and year level, 2020

Created 26/06/2025

Updated 26/06/2025

The data is collected from all Government schools as part of the administration of student absences. Attendance rate is calculated on the number of actual full-time equivalent student-days attended by students in Years 1 to 10 as a percentage of the total number of possible student-days attended over semester 1. Please note: This definition differs for the data published by ACARA on the 'My School' website where attendance is calculated for Year 1 to Year 10 over the full school year. Please note that due to lockdown periods impacted by COVID-19, the attendance dataset for 2020 might not be comparable to previous year attendance dataset.
