NRS-17585 | Register of admission, progress and withdrawal [Westbrook Public School]

The purpose of an admission register was to record basic details about children admitted to the school, and about their parents or guardians. The registers were also used to record the progress of the children through various classes and the date of their leaving the school. Pupils' records were numbered sequentially, with early volumes having different sequences for boys and girls, and new sequences beginning each year. From the late 1950s, children were entered into new registers in order of admission, regardless of gender.Volumes contain information pertaining to each pupil, including: date of admission; pupil's name; age in years and months; religious denomination; name of previous school and date of leaving; the pupil’s parents’ or guardians’ name, residence and occupation; the pupil’s date of admission to each subsequent grade or class; and the date which the pupil left the school and any occupation entered into on leaving school. This last column was also used to record other schools to which pupils may have transferred.

入学登记册的核心功能为记录入校学生及其父母或监护人的基础信息，同时亦可用于追踪学生在各班级的就读进度与离校日期。学生档案按顺序编号，早期档案册按男女生分别设置独立编号序列，且每年启用全新的编号体系。自20世纪50年代末起，无论学生性别，均按入校先后顺序录入新登记册。每份档案册包含每名学生的完整信息，具体包括：入校日期、学生姓名、精确至岁与月的年龄、宗教教派归属、此前就读学校名称及离校日期、学生父母或监护人的姓名、住址与职业、学生升入各后续年级或班级的日期、学生离校日期及离校时的职业信息。该栏目末列还可用于记录学生转学至的其他院校相关信息。
