Note 1: The number of half-days authorised and unauthorised absence for each pupil assumes 380 half-days in the school session.
Note 2: A percentage figure of zero means less than 0.5 per cent.
Note 3: Exact values have been used in the calculation of the average number of half-days per pupil, rather than the rounded percentages shown in the tables. This explains any apparent inconsistencies between percentage figures and the average number of half-days absence per pupil.
