Written Answers. - School Pupils.
85.
The number of pupils 12 years of age and over but under 14 years attending national, private, secondary and vocational schools on the 1st January, 1965 was as follows:—
|
National schools |
73,912 |
|
Presecondary schools and private schools |
861 |
|
Secondary schools and secondary top departments of national schools |
27,196 |
|
Vocational schools |
6,755 |
I have assumed that "pre-secondary" refers to junior or preparatory departments of secondary schools and that "private schools" are all other non-aided primary schools.
