Enrolments in support classes and schools for specific purposes by category (2011-2017)

Enrolments of students in support classes and in schools for specific purposes by category.

Data Notes:

  • Schools for specific purposes (SSPs) are for students with specific needs. Students in SSPs are reported according to the type of specific need rather than by their year of schooling. Students with multiple disabilities are reported according to their main disability.

  • Some students with specific needs are enrolled in support classes in primary, secondary and central schools. Students enrolled in support classes are reported according to the type of specific need rather than by their year of schooling. Support classes for students of mixed abilities are classified according to the predominant type of specific need present in the class

  • Students in SSPs, except those in juvenile justice schools, are reported by the category of their primary disability, not by the type of SSP.
