National Consistent Collection of Data (NCCD)

The NCCD is a national initiative supported by the Australian Government Department of Education, Skills and Employment. It ensures that schools record and report adjustments made for students with disabilities. At Wilding & Co Lawyers, we assist educational institutions in understanding and applying the NCCD guidelines, ensuring compliance with the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (DDA) and the Disability Standards for Education 2005.

Key Steps in Administering the NCCD:

  • Prepare Your School and School Community

    • Ensure all school personnel are trained and understand their obligations.

    • Establish processes for recording and storing evidence.

    • Notify the school community about the NCCD process.

  • Provide Adjustments

    • Assess the functional impact of the student’s disability.

    • Decide and implement the necessary adjustments.

    • Consult with students and their associates.

  • Determine the Level and Category of Adjustments**

    • Identify the appropriate level of adjustment required.

    • Categorise the disability to ensure the correct reporting.

  • Record and Retain Evidence

    • Maintain comprehensive records to support the inclusion of each student in the NCCD.
