The extent to which students continue to participate in public school education is indicated by the apparent Year 8 to Year 12 retention rate, which is
the number of full-time students in Year 12 in a given calendar year as a percentage of the number of full-time students who enrolled in Year 8 four
years earlier. Data for 2008 to 2013 are presented in Table 24, and Figure 5 shows the rate from 1993 to 2013.
The apparent retention rate does not account for net changes to the school population caused by interstate and overseas migration or students
moving between school sectors. It is estimated that approximately 7% of the apparent retention rate increase from 2012 to 2013 reflected improved
Year 8 to Year 12 retention, 80% was due to more students moving to public schools from private schools and registered training organisations, and
about 13% was due to higher net overseas and interstate migration.
