NCCD evidence, gathered as the year happens.

Not rebuilt from memory in the weeks before census. Descant keeps each student's adjustments and the evidence behind them together, added to by the educators who see the adjustments working.

Talk to us about NCCD How it works

Descant NCCD evidence workflow for one student: educator input requested, a professional review queue, and evidence coverage across the four NCCD elements. — One student's NCCD evidence in Descant. Illustrative student and details.

Where NCCD evidence usually lives

In the classroom, where the adjustment happens — and in a corridor conversation that never reaches the student's file.
In emails and shared drives, split across the staff who each hold part of the story.
In someone's memory, reconstructed when the school has to show what it did.

How Descant helps

ask

Ask the educator who saw it

Ask the educators who see the student. They sign in to the educator portal and add what they have seen. They see only their own notes and when the support team has reviewed them, never the case.

record

Every note attributed and dated

Each contribution lands on the right student's record, with who said it and when.

gaps

See where evidence is missing

Link notes and assessments to each adjustment, and see which adjustments are evidenced and which still have gaps.

pack

An evidence pack when you need one

Produce a student's NCCD evidence pack as a PDF when the school has to show what it did and why.

Your team makes the call

Descant organises the evidence. It does not decide a student's level of adjustment or category of disability — that stays with your team and your school's NCCD process. The national model itself is published at nccd.edu.au.
