The links and files below relate to the Collection of Information on Student Background Characteristics.

These resources are designed to help schools and school systems implement changes required by Education Ministers to enrolment forms (and associated data collection and storage processes). These changes will enable nationally comparable reporting of students' outcomes against the National Goals for Schooling in the Twenty-First Century.
