Questions and instructions

Interviewer instructions

For the persons, who have ever enrolled for any course i.e. those having code ‘1’ in item 3, the items 4 to 12 are to be filled in. As the details relate to the last course, it is possible that this may not be the same as his educational level reported in block 4. To be more precise, the level of this course should be either equal or higher than his educational level as reported in block 4.

Persons, who did not enrol in a particular level after completing the previous level is termed as discontinued whereas those who enrolled/attended a specific level but did not complete that level successfully are called drop outs. For the purpose of this survey both the types should be treated alike. The age at which the persons discontinued/dropped out should be entered against this item.
