Method of Computation The cohort survival rate is computed using the reconstructed cohort method:

2. Compute the number of promotees up to grade 6 using the promotion rates for the respective grade/year levels.
3. Compute the number of pupils in a grade who repeat once, twice, up to 6 times.
4. Add the repeaters in the previous grade level who were promoted with the pupils in the current grade who repeated.
5. Calculate the total for each grade level to obtain the pupil-years.
6. Multiply the pupil-years with the respective promotion rate to get the total promotees (including repeaters).
7. Calculate the reconstructed cohort survival rate for each grade level by dividing the total promotees GR X-1 (including repeaters) with the original cohort of 100.
