Note:
Due to the rigorous quality control measures embedded in the LURITS, the system can reject records e.g duplicated learners or learners without grade or subject allocations, to ensure better quality of learner data.
This however is mediated by a stringent process to identify, verify and quality assure the rejected learners and to ensure all learners are accurately accounted for in the Sector before finalising the annual statistics.
