NCCD

NCCD stands for the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability. It is an Australian government initiative that gathers standardized information from schools about students with disabilities or additional needs. The goal is to ensure accurate understanding of these students’ requirements, support adequate funding, and improve educational services. The data helps policymakers, educators, and support staff to plan and deliver tailored resources, fostering inclusive education environments. Essentially, NCCD provides a comprehensive, consistent picture of students needing additional support across the country, promoting fairness and ensuring every student receives appropriate learning opportunities.
