Age distribution of secondary students in NSW government schools (2011-2023)

Data Notes:

  • Data is collected mid-year (census date: first Friday in August) from NSW government schools as per National Schools Statistics Collection (NSSC).

  • From 2020, students in mainstream support classes are reported by their underlying grade of enrolment. Previously, students in support classes in mainstream schools were not included.

  • Students in schools for specific purposes (SSPs) are not included.

  • Students in distance education and Intensive English Centres are included with their appropriate grade levels.

  • OC classes are not included in secondary students. IEC students are included.

  • In most scholastic years there are a small number of students in atypical age groups. For students under 18 years, these have been included in the nearest band. This is indicated with an asterisk. As a result, the sum of each row may not equal the totals reported. See relevant tables in Statistical Bulletin for more details.
