Interviewer instructions
The term "school" means formal schooling, which includes primary, secondary and vocational schooling, as well as any other intermediate levels of schooling in the formal school system. This definition of school does not include short courses like typing, computing or sewing. However, it does include technical or vocational training beyond the primary-school level, such as long-term courses in mechanics or secretarial work.

'Preschool' is listed for children who do not attend grade 1 at age 5, but do attend some form of organized learning or early childhood education programme, whether or not such a programme is considered a part of the school system. The definition of organized early learning programme does not refer to programmes offering only baby-sitting or child-minding.

Circle '1' if the answer is 'Yes'. If the answer is 'No' circle '2' and go on to the household member on the next line.
