Interviewer instructions

This refers to education in Primary School, Secondary School, College and Institutes.
The question should be asked to all persons of age 6 years and over regardless of literacy. This is because an illiterate person might have attended a school/institute but might have forgotten or may not be able to read and write. A literate person might not have attended a school/institute but attended either a traditional/non-formal institute or learnt on his/her own. The answer to this question may be recorded as follows:-

Record code “1” if the person is currently attending a school / institute. Record code “2” if the person attended school/institution in the past and record code “3” if the person has never at any time attended a school/institute, then skip to column 19.
