52. Instructions for filling-in column 1 to 25 of Form B: part 2

You have to collect information in part 2 for all persons mentioned in statement 1.1 and statement 1.2 of part 1. Some of the following questions have been answered in part 1. Therefore there will be no need to ask these questions again. In such cases all you have to do is to copy the information in the appropriate column.

70. Column 17: full time education

[p. 27]

Full-time education refers to education in an educational institution like Primary school, Secondary school, College, Training center, etc. This question should be filled-in for all persons.

70.1. Column 17 (a): have you ever attended school / educational institution?

This applies to both literate and illiterate persons. The answer to this question may be recorded as follows:

(a) Never: record 1 if the person has never at any time received full-time education from a School or educational institution.
(b) Now: record 2 if the person is still receiving full-time education at the time of the Survey in a school or educational institution.
(c) Past: record 3 if the person received full-time education in the past and is no longer receiving it now.

Note that it is possible that a person who is literate (Code 00 in column 17(a)), had never attended any school at all (e.g. he might have learnt to read and write in a pagoda) and May, therefore, be given code 00 in column 17(a).
