Table III.
Average Attendance in all Government and Grant Schools, and total enrolment at Private Schools and the Technical Institute, which was opened in 1908.
Note. The figures prior to 1913 are not very trustworthy, as there was no right of entry into private schools until that year.
The figures for the New Territories are included in 1913 for the first time.
The University and Police School are not included.
