Method & notes
IN BRIEF

Completion is an outcome indicator, but values above 100% can occur because of repeaters and cross-state transfers.

METHOD & LIMITATIONS

Official government-school completion data through 2022.

PulseKita uses MOE's published completion rate for upper secondary education (Forms 4–5), both sexes, at state level.

  • The latest official open-data year is 2022; PulseKita labels this clearly rather than presenting it as current 2026 performance.
  • Completion rates may exceed 100% when students repeat grades or transfer between states.
  • The dataset refers to government schools only.
