INTRODUCTION

'Highest year of school completed' identifies the highest year of primary or secondary education which a person has completed, regardless of the institution or location where that study took place.

The variable makes no distinction between respondents who have left school, and those who are still pursuing primary or secondary education.

The 'Education Standard Variables Guide’ provides information on education concepts, classifications and terminology used in this standard.
