Description

Definition

Educational attendance:

Attendance means registering the person in any formal education stage irrespective of whether it took the form of continuous attendance or distant learning. Formal education stages include the elementary stage, preparatory stage, (both of which are referred to as the basic stage), secondary stage, and higher education stage (universities, colleges, vocational institutes, …etc.).
Enrollment categories are as follows:

1. Attending: It applies if the person is currently enrolled in a regular education stage,
2. Attended and left: It applies if the person unsuccessfully left a regular education stage, i.e. without obtaining any degree.
3. Attended and graduated: It applies if the person successfully graduated from a regular education stage and did not enroll in any stage after that.
4. Never attended: It applies if the person is not currently enrolled and was never enrolled in any regular education stage.
