Interviewer instructions
The current attendance status refers to whether the person is currently attending any educational institution or not. This is to be differentiated from current enrolment. Persons, who are temporally not attending due to
reasons like illness, vacation etc. will be treated as currently attending. Same treatment would be applicable for the persons, who are awaiting their results after completing a particular course. The codes are to be given to identify the broad level of course/education currently attending. Those, who have never attended any educational institution, code 1 is to be provided. Those, who are not currently attending any educational institutions, would be given code 2. For those who are currently attending in NFEC/AIEP code 3 would be
given. Similarly, code 4 is to be given for those attending TLC/AEC. The household members whose current educational attendance is not covered under any of the other categories should be given code 5. The non-formal education, the courses other than those coming under the scope of 'education' as defined in the beginning of this chapter etc. are to be considered under code 5. Those studying in Pre-primary level in Kindergarten, nursery etc. should be given code 6. Persons attending educational institutions in classes at primary level and above should be given code 7. The students attending institution under EGS should be given code 6 or 7 depending upon their current level of class.
