Beyond the SD register

Children the department works with who are not counted in the headline figure above. Only ASDAN is part of the register; the rest are separate groups, so these numbers must not be added to it.

Children on an individual plan

Tier 2 and Tier 3 — the children who receive an IEP or BIP. Tier 1 is supported through quality-first teaching in class, without an individual plan.

Average progress per student

The measure the department used up to 2025-2026: the mean of each child's overall IEP or BIP achievement for the year. It stops at 2025-2026 because 2026-2027 rates each target individually instead — a different denominator, so the two are shown apart.

About these figures. Register refined this year: identification split into Formal and Informal, and medical-only cases transferred to the school clinic. Earlier years ran a single combined register, so the headcount above is shown on a like-for-like basis with medical cases excluded throughout.

Figures for earlier years were compiled from departmental records; hard copies are held by the Inclusion Department and available on request. The current year updates automatically from the JSS SD Platform. This page shows department-level totals only and contains no information about any individual child.
