Dáil Éireann Debate, Monday - 11 September 2023
602. Deputy Patrick Costello asked the Minister for Education the intake ratio at secondary level for all school planning areas, broken down by individual school planning area, in each of the years 2015-2019, or by two-year period, in tabular form; and to clarify if such figures include fee paying schools.

View answerData supplied is for academic years 2016-2019 for 1st years in each SPA based on the previous 6th class in each SPA (School Planning Area). Where the percentage is greater than 100% for an SPA, the number of pupils attending 1st year in the SPA is greater than the number of pupils living in the SPA when enrolled in 6th class in the previous year. As individualised data is not available for primary pupils years prior to 2015, the introduction of the Primary Online Database, we cannot supply data for years prior to 2016. Post-primary data for each year includes enrolments in fee-charging schools.
Please find attached requested data.
