Revisions
Correcting the number of pupils known to be electively home educated in Wales in 2023/24, which was incorrectly given as the previous year’s number (5,330). It has now been updated to the correct number for the most recent academic year (6,156). The correct figure of 6,156 pupils was used in the accompanying spreadsheet.
In Table 5 the data for the most recent year were incorrect in the first four rows. This also led to the ratios based on these numbers being incorrect.
Changes have been marked with an (r). None of the main messages or trends have changed as a result of these revisions.
