There appears to be steady enrolment across the province for the current school year.
The Department of Education and Early Childhood Development issued its annual report for 2016 and 2017.
Education and Early Childhood Development Minister Brian Kenny says this information is useful in looking at enrolment trends, required resources and class sizes.
Enrolment has been decreasing since 1991, but the most recent numbers indicate that they were stable for the current school year.
One of the contributing factors is the number of newcomers to the province. 650 Syrian students enrolled in 2016.
