Data Notes:

The table includes data from the K-6 Community Languages Program (CLP) and the K-6 Languages Program (non-CLP) collections.

Students may study more than one language.

Students in Distance Education and Opportunity Classes (OC) are included with their appropriate grade levels.

The overall totals for individual languages may include students in support classes.

Programs in Languages other than English for Years K-6 and the Language Participation for Years 7-9 data collections were not conducted in 2022, in line with the department’s commitment to “clear the decks” for schools in Term 2 2022.

The data files from 2019 have been updated to include a new column labelled 'School Count', which displays the number of schools that offer/teach the language that year.
