Staying or going?
For a comparison of
high school completion rates from 1989 to 2002, see '
Factors affecting Year 12 retention across Australian states and territories in the 1990s' published by the
Centre for Economic Policy Research, Australian National University. It's at
http://cepr.anu.edu.au/pdf/DP467.pdf. According to this report,
Year 12 retention rates are no lower in the late 1990s than in the early 1990s, though official figures apparently claim they are.
