Data notes & caveats
The focal 11.9% rate and the 30.3%/69.7% attendance split must not be combined into one composition.
Methodology
The working-child incidence is retained for all children aged 5–17, while school attendance is measured within the working-child subset.
Source consistency notes
All indicators come from the same 2023 survey, with the two denominator universes explicitly separated.
