["(a)","The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is from year 8 to year 10 or 12 for Queensland, WA and SA and from year 7 to 10 or 12 for all other jurisdictions. The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. The apparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers. Relatively small changes in student numbers can create apparently large movements in apparent retention rates for apparent retention rates calculated for small populations."]
["(b)","Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous students counted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whom Indigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However, these students are included in the figures for 'All students'."]
["(c)","Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion has particular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary students are ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but since 2008 the NT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered when interpreting these data."]
["(d)","Data for WA have been affected by changes in scope and coverage over time.  "]
["(e)","The exclusion of part time students from standard apparent retention rate calculations has particular implications for the interpretation of results for SA and Tasmania."]

["(a)","The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is from year 8 to year 10 or 12 for Queensland, WA and SA and from year 7 to 10 or 12 for all other jurisdictions. The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. The apparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers. Relatively small changes in student numbers can create apparently large movements in apparent retention rates for apparent retention rates calculated for small populations."]
["(b)","Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous students counted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whom Indigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However, these students are included in the figures for 'All students'."]
["(c)","Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion has particular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary students are ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but since 2008 the NT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered when interpreting these data."]
["(d)","Data for WA have been affected by changes in scope and coverage over time.  "]

The apparent retention rate from year 7 or 8 to year 10 or year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 10 or year 12 from respective cohort groups at the commencement of their secondary schooling. The apparent retention rate from year 10 to year 12 is the percentage of full time students who continued to year 12 from respective cohort groups at year 10. Calculations are based on full time student numbers. Relatively small changes in student numbers can create apparently large movements in apparent retention rates for apparent retention rates calculated for small populations."]
["(b)","Some students' Indigenous status is not stated. Consequently, the number of Indigenous students counted in the Indigenous rates may be underrepresented in some jurisdictions. Students for whom Indigenous status is 'not stated' are not included in the figures for 'Non-Indigenous students'. However, these students are included in the figures for 'All students'."]
["(c)","Ungraded students are not included in the calculation of apparent retention rates. This exclusion has particular implications for the NT, prior to 2008, where 10.9 per cent of Indigenous secondary students are ungraded in 2007 (compared with an average of 4.2 per cent for the rest of Australia, but since 2008 the NT proportion of ungraded students has substantially reduced), and this should be considered when interpreting these data."]
