This allocation will be provided for students to help the school address the learning needs of students with eligible disability. There are seven levels in the allocation, with each level generating a different amount of funding. The level of funding will be based on disability type, school type, degree of disability and level of teaching and learning adjustment. Some students with exceptionally high needs will be provided with additional funding to supplement this allocation. Separately, an educational adjustment allocation will be provided that recognises there are students who require teaching and learning adjustments but may not be eligible for the disability allocation.
