Nationally consistent collection of data – school students with disability

The Australian Government and all state and territory governments have agreed to work towards the full implementation of a nationally consistent collection of data on school students with disability by 2015.

 

Collecting these data will help schools and education systems to implement Australian education ministers’ Melbourne Declaration (2008) to work towards two important educational goals for young Australians, that:

• Australian schooling promotes equity and excellence; and
• All young Australians become: successful learners; confident and creative individuals; and  active and informed citizens.
