Information about the child's mother, father or guardian is also recorded with details including names and status in relationship to the child. The pupil's date of leaving the school and their destination (school or occupation) upon leaving school is also recorded.Admission registers in paper format ceased in 1999 when the department moved to recording enrolment details in electronic format.This series also contains admission registers from Ryde North High School, the previous name for Peter Board High School.
