National Consistent Collection of Data

NCCD – During this term, James Fallon High School will complete this data collection for the Education Department.

The National Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) takes place annually. The NCCD is a collection that counts:

• the number of school students receiving an adjustment or ‘help’ due to disability
• the level of adjustment they are receiving to access education on the same basis as other students.

Students are counted in the NCCD if they receive ongoing adjustments at school due to disability. This ‘help’ allows all students to access education on the same basis. The NCCD uses the definition of disability in the Disability Discrimination Act 1992. Schools provide this information to education authorities.
