School/Preschool Enrolment of Indigenous Children

This research uses Footprints in Time: The Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children (LSIC) to understand the incidence as well as the key determinants of school enrolment of Indigenous children. The Footprints in Time data has been collected annually since 2008 from two birth cohorts of Indigenous children (1,759 children in total) and their parents and teachers. Children in the younger cohort (about 1,000) were mostly born between December 2006 and November 2007, and children in the older cohort (about 750) between December 2003 and November 2004.
