The Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD) is an annual collection of information about Australian school students with disability.

The NCCD enables schools, education authorities and governments to  understand the needs of students with disability and ensure they are supported at school.

If you want to use Pastoral Care to record data for NCCD, some simple adjustments will need to be made in the Administration area of your instance by a Superuser.

This page also includes some instructions for your teachers on how to record an ILP or adjustment as a Pastoral Record.

On this page, you will find the following information:
