Nationally Consistent Collection of Data

Nationally Consistent Collection of Data

From 2015 all government and non-government schools in Australia have been required to participate annually in the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability. This data collection will provide all Australian schools, education authorities and the community with nationally consistent information about the number of school students with disability and the level of adjustment being made in schools to enable the students to access and participate in learning on the same basis as their peers.

No personal information that identifies students or schools is provided to the Department of Education and Training.

Further information is available on the fact sheet attached, and also on the Department of Education and Training website:

Should you wish for your child’s information not to be included in the national data collection, please contact the Principal, Mr Simon Cobiac at scobiac@bps.sa.edu.au or 8169 3900.
