….Data on School Students with Disability
The first stage of a national data collection on students with disability was conducted in 20 per cent of schools in October. This is the first in a three-year program that will collect information about the level and type of adjustment schools are making for these students. CDA is keen to hear from members involved in the process in their school about the data collection process.
