Federal Education Minister Christopher Pyne said the My School data was a valuable research tool.
"Late last year we included new data on school attendance as part of our approach to ensure a stronger focus on keeping kids in schools," Mr Pyne said.
"And over the coming year we plan to work with the states and territories on ideas to make the website even easier to use and understand and provide more information about students' progress and educational outcomes."
The My School website is jointly owned by the Australian Government and states and territories, and is managed by the Australian Curriculum Assessment and Reporting Authority.
