Section A: Information for persons in the household -- ask of everyone
[Section A of this form, each question has 10 answer rows for writing individual answers for up to 10 individuals in the household. Only the first is shown here, which is exactly the same as the other nine.]

Question P-16 and 16a -- Present school attendance
Question 16 has two parts, P-16, and P-16a. Only those who answer "Yes" to P-16 have to answer 16a. Those who answer "No" go straight to P-17, as 16a will not apply to them.
P-16a "Is this institution public or private?"
1 = public, 2 = private, 3 = don't know.
Write the answer in the box in the column headed "Type". Write 3 = don't know only if no-one in the household knows the type.
[P. 47]
Note: A public school means a government school, i.e. a school directly under the provincial department of education. Former white schools known as ex-Model C schools are government schools, even if they are fee-paying.
