Data collection about school students with
disability
All Australian governments have agreed to
work together on the annual collection of data on school students with
disability.
The collection of this data will assist
teachers, principals and education authorities support the participation of
students with disability in schooling on the same basis as students without
disability.
From this year, the national collection of
data on school students with disability is required in all Australian schools.
This national data collection will
reinforce the actions required of schools under the national Disability Discrimination Act 1992 and
the Disability Standards for Education 2005.
To assist this data collection it is
timely that we ensure all our school details for all families are current.
Please complete the family details form for each child attending Springfield Lakes
State School and return by Friday June 26. This form will be sent home by
Friday May 29.
