Interviewer instructions

Column 6: if code 2 in col. 5, whether discontinued from an ordinary school due to onset of disability?: This item is meant for recording whether or not the disabled child discontinued studies from the ordinary school due to onset of disability. This information will be recorded for the disabled children who were once enrolled in an ordinary school but discontinued later (i.e. for those with code 2 in col. 5). Code 1 will be recorded if the disabled child is reported to have discontinued the studies due to onset of disability and code 2 for other reasons.
