Full-time equivalent enrolments of students with a verified disability by education setting, collected from 2012 as part of the annual enrolment data collection in Term 3. Students with a disability are those students who are verified by a Department for Education psychologist or speech pathologist as eligible for the Department for Education Disability Support Program. Education settings include Mainstream Classes, Special Classes, Special Units and Special Schools.

Special Classes are located within some junior primary, primary and secondary schools. They provide a setting for learners with a disability who need extensive curriculum support, for a short or long-term placement.

Special Units are located within some primary and secondary schools. They provide long-term educational options in a mainstream school for learners with very significant or multiple disabilities.

Special Units and Special Schools both cater for a similar range of learner needs. The difference is that Special Units provide an option within a mainstream school, while Special Schools provide the option in a separate setting.
