Data Notes:

  • National Schools Statistics Collection (NSSC) enrolments collected as at the first Friday in August every year.
  • All NSSC enrolments are headcount figures for NSW government schools only.
  • Where a school had 5 or fewer students, the figure has been suppressed. A null figure indicates no enrolments were collected for NSSC in the given calendar year.
