Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD)
Every year, all schools in Australia participate in the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). The NCCD process requires schools to identify information already available in the school about supports provided to students with disability. These relate to legislative requirements under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 and the Disability Standards for Education 2005, in line with the NCCD guidelines (2024).
Information provided about students to the Australian Government for the NCCD includes:
- year of schooling
- category of disability: physical, cognitive, sensory, or social/emotional
- level of adjustment provided: support provided within quality differentiated teaching practice, supplementary, substantial or extensive.
More information on this process is in the following attachment. Please contact Mrs. McLarty (Deputy Principal K-12), jmclarty@gpcc.nsw.edu.au if you require further information.
Reconciliation Services
The theme this year, “Now more than ever, says we need to tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation. We know that the 6.2 million Australians who voted YES in the 1967 referendum are committed to better outcomes for First Nations people and are with us.”
Primary - Wednesday 29 May 2.30pm
The Student Representative Councillors explained what reconciliation means, to the students. Each student in Years 3 - 6 made a reconciliation hand to place under the stage to remember. Kindergarten - Year 2 and YVCS have their hands displayed in the library. Thank you to our Councillors for preparing such an amazing experience for our students.
Secondary - Wednesday 29 May 12.00pm
Year 11 Aboriginal Studies students, Tirzah H, Isaiah F and Thomas W, presented the History of Reconciliation to Secondary students. It showed us the improvements over time and challenged us that changes are important ‘Now more than ever’.
"During a staff learning walk, we went into her class. The class was engaged, learning and so excited for us to come in. Corinna was encouraging, had great demonstrations to teach the Kindergarten students to learn force (push and pull). I learnt alongside the Kindy student. I was super encouraged by her attitude, teaching style and the way she shines her passion for teaching in her lesson.
What an absolute asset she is to our school!”
