Definition

Specifies the highest educational level of school a student has successfully completed.

Context

It is used for identifying the highest level of schooling a student has successfully completed.

Guidelines

It is expected that students provide the highest school level they have successfully completed. For example: If a student is currently enrolled in year 12, their Highest school level completed is year 11. If the student is no longer enrolled at school and did not successfully pass year 12, their Highest school level completed is year 11. For students schooled overseas, report the nearest Australian equivalent. The Highest school level completed code must be reported if the student has provided this information on their enrolment form.
