Notes: CBSL Economic and Social Statistics, table 2.23. Compiled by Ministry of Education. New Admissions in Government Schools, by province/district, medium of instruction and gender. Districts sum to their province and provinces sum to the Total row for every column and year (verified, 539+59 checks, 0 failures). Known source printing errors, kept as printed: (1) 2021 North Western - All Students - Total is blank (Male 19,775 + Female 19,095 = 38,870 printed nowhere); (2) 2022 English Medium - Total is printed as 617 for Galle, Southern (Galle's own province) and the national Total row alike, though Male (87) + Female (87) = 174 in all three - the All Students - Total column correctly uses 174, so only the English Medium - Total cell itself is wrong; (3) 2024 and 2025 Batticaloa - Sinhala Medium - Total are printed as 40 and 41 instead of Male+Female (3 and 1). The source spells one district 'Killinochchi' (extra l, consistently across all five years); kept as printed rather than corrected to 'Kilinochchi'.
