Method & notes
IN BRIEF

Comparing stages helps separate system progression from exam performance, which this dataset does not measure.

METHOD & LIMITATIONS

Completion rates are not exam pass rates.

PulseKita uses MOE's national both-sex completion rates for primary, lower-secondary and upper-secondary government education.

  • The current open-data series is published through 2022.
  • Completion rates can exceed 100% because of repeaters or students transferring between states.
  • This is a system completion measure, not an examination pass rate.
