These estimates cover the whole authority, including any surrounding towns and countryside.

Pupils missing a tenth or more of school

Persistent absence means missing 10% or more of possible half-day sessions. School-location basis, enrolment denominator; independent schools and children not on a school roll are outside this collection. Administrative school records, not a survey.
