Learner numbers reported to the Department, by year

These counts are not a measure of quality. A number can change because a school adds or drops grades, because new schools open nearby or boundaries change, or because of an error in what was reported.

Learners by year, with the number of learners down the left. A gap is a year we have no figure for. Outlined bars are years the school was listed as a different type of school.

The Department’s lists record this school for 2018 as a special needs school. A school listed as a different type usually offered a different range of grades, so those numbers and later ones may not be counting the same thing.
