Set a student's adjustment level

The level of adjustment is the level of support a student receives. Together with the category of disability, it's what the NCCD records for each student.

Set the level

  1. Open the student's profile and choose More actions, then Set level

  2. Choose the level of adjustment

    A teacher at a school with a coordinator sees the level read only, with Suggest a change.

  3. Check the Since when? date

    It starts on the first day of the collection, so evidence already logged counts; change it if the level started later. For Extensive, evidence before this date doesn't count toward the run.

  4. A coordinator chooses Save level, and that is the level

    A teacher writes the suggestion and chooses Send to [coordinator], for the coordinator to act on.

The four levels

The four levels
LevelWhat it means
Quality differentiated teaching practice (QDTP)Minor adjustments expected as part of quality teaching, through usual school processes. Recorded, but attracts no funding loading.
SupplementaryAdjustments at specific times, to address a specific need.
SubstantialAdjustments at most times, on most days, to address more significant needs.
ExtensiveExtensive, individualised adjustments at all times.

The NCCD Guidelines ask schools to report the highest level provided for at least 10 weeks in the 12 months before Census Day, and to review levels every year. For the line between the first two, the evidence centre helps with deciding between QDTP and Supplementary.

How the level affects readiness

Readiness needs the level: until it's set, the profile shows Level not set and no pillar words. For an Extensive student, Superadjust looks for 10 consecutive school weeks of adjustments, which is Superadjust's own rule for Extensive. Set the right level first, so readiness measures against the right bar. For coordinators, the level also drives the school's funding projections.
