Note 1: The number of half days authorised and unauthorised absence for each pupil assumed 380 half days in the school session.
Note 2: A percentage absence figure of 0 means less than 0.5 percent.
Note 3: Exact values have been used in the calculations for the number of half days rather than the rounded values given in the tables. This is the reason for some apparent inconsistencies between percentage figures and the exact number of half days.
Note4: Schools marked with (×) receive pupils after S4 to continue their education in S5 and S6.
