    Secondary education at the Victorian Correspondence School, 1938-1978
    Jones, Sharon Lesley ( 1982)
    How many students? What forms? What type of students? Where are students located? How many and what type of subjects are studied? Why do students discontinue? These, and other questions about the enrolment at the Secondary Section of the Correspondence School are investigated in this thesis. A computer analysis of information on Student Record Cards was completed for every fifth year in the period 1938-1978, with most variables being cross-tabulated with form, and this data is presented in a series of tables. A description of the changes which occurred between 1938 and 1978 is also provided. The major contribution of this thesis is that it makes available enrolment data which was in an hitherto unavailable form. Data files for each year investigated have been created and these are available if future researchers wish to complete detailed studies of individual years or for studies of specific aspects of enrolment through time.
