GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
The universe of this variable covers the individuals attending school at the time of the survey (ATTSCH=1), and will be coded missing for others.
If the type of secondary school is not specified, it is assumed to be academic (Code 3).
For the surveys in which no distinction is provided between university and post university, they are considered to be university.
COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
Generated for those reported as currently attending school in the school attendance status.
The variable is generated using the highest level of education attained+1, therefore it is only generated for individuals aged 10+, i.e., if the highest level attained is primary for example, normally the individual should be attending in preparatory, except for postgraduates who remained postgraduates since no higher levels could be attained
Those who were illiterate and are currently students were recoded into “other” education together with those indicated “read and write” in the educational status, except for individuals aged 16 years of age or younger still eligible to enroll in primary education, were reported to be in primary education.
“Secondary” and “Intermediate college” graduates” were classified into “university” since no distinction between academic/vocational/ technical secondary is available.
