Most Private School Students

Understand most private school students: what the measure counts, how to read it and where to check the source.

Private-school enrolment measures where students attend, not necessarily who pays all the costs. Privately managed schools can receive public funding. Primary and secondary education may have different patterns, and a percentage differs from a pupil count. A comparison needs the same education level and institutional definition.
