Question 12 - Are you attending or have you ever attended school?

No, never attended - you have never regularly attended classes in an educational establishment. Usually, this situation refers to persons who have never enrolled in an educational establishment, although they may be able to read and write. It also applies to children who have not reached school age and who are not attending pre-school classes.

Attending - to tick this box, it is not enough to be enrolled, it is necessary to regularly attend classes. You must also tick this response for children in pre-school education. Attending vocational programs will be considered here whenever the program attended is equivalent to a level of public education.

Attended, but no more - whoever no longer attends classes, that is, whoever is no longer enrolled because they have finished their studies or have dropped out of school.

Interviewer instructions
Question 12 - Are you attending or have ever attended school?


We admit the following modalities:

No, never attended - people that never enrolled in a school or teaching establishment, even if they know how to read and write. Also applies to children that didn't yet reach school age.

Attending - to select this option it is not enough to be enrolled in a school. Rather, one has to attend school regularly.

Attended, but no more - chooses this option who doesn't attend school anymore, either because one is not enrolled anymore or because he ended the course or quitted school.

Note: if the individual never attended an educational institution, he goes to question 16.
