All Education Ministers from Commonwealth, state and territory governments endorsed the implementa-tion of a Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) in all Australian schools (government, independent and Catholic). The nationally consistent approach to data collection provides all Australian schools, education authorities and the community with a clear picture of the number of students receiving adjustments because of disabil-ity in schools, and the adjustments they are provided to enable them to participate in education on the same basis as other students. Authority for the national data collection The Australian Education Regulation 2013 requires the operators of all government and non-government schools that receive Australian Government funding (approved authorities) to provide in-formation to the Australian Government Department of Education and Training (the Department) for the purposes of the national data collection. The Australian Education Regulation 2013 (www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2016C00958) is on the Federal Register of Legislation website. The information that approved authorities must give to the Department includes, in relation to each student

with a disability at a school operated by the approved authority:

the student’s year of schooling

the student’s category of disability (physical, cognitive, sensory or social/emotional)

the student’s level of adjustment (support provided within quality differentiated teaching practice,

supplementary, substantial or extensive adjustment).

Other details about the information to be collected, and the format in which the information is to be provided to the Department, are contained in guidelines approved by the Education Council (the committee of the Council of Australian Governments comprising the Commonwealth and state and territory Ministers responsible for education). Guidelines for the national data collection (www.education.gov.au/node/50091) are available on the Department’s website.

The information will not explicitly identify individual students.

Collection, use and disclosure of information from the national data collection The information collected by schools for the purposes of the 2018 national data collection will ultimately be provided to the Department. The Department, on behalf of the Joint Working Group, will use information from the national data collec-tion for the purposes of preparing reports for and briefing the Australian Education Senior Officials Com-mittee and the Education Council in relation to the national data collection. When providing these reports or briefing material, the Department will ensure that the information remains de-identified. Information from the national data collection will also be used for policy development undertaken by the Department, including informing funding considerations relating to students with disability, and other policy development as agreed by the Education Council. From 2018, the Commonwealth’s student with disability funding loading for schools is based on the national data collection. Contact For further information about the collection, use or disclosure of information for the national data collection, please contact: SWD-

PolicyTeam@education.gov.au. Any questions parents/carers or schools have about the completion of the 2018 national data col-

lection may be directed to: the relevant education authority contact listed in the Contacts page of the Guidelines

(docs.education.gov.au/node/50091) on the Department’s website or the Contacts page of the national professional learning website

(www.schooldisabilitydatapl.edu.au/other-pages/contact-us) developed by Education Services Australia.
