Welcome to Term 2
We warmly welcome all students, staff, families, and community members back for Term 2.

As always, we encourage our students to embrace challenges, pursue their goals, and support one another throughout the term.

The Wellbeing Barometer survey is an annual check-in that helps us better understand student wellbeing at Clare High School. It provides valuable insights into students’ experiences, highlights areas of concern, builds on strengths, and supports early intervention.
This year, the survey has been updated to give clearer, more meaningful feedback from parents and carers, while continuing to prioritise privacy and confidentiality. Your participation is encouraged. Please take a few moments to complete the survey for each of your children, based on the past 12 months.
If the content raises any concerns, please contact the school or seek professional advice. Your feedback is always welcome.

Every year, all schools in Australia participate in the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). The NCCD process requires schools to identify information already available in the school about supports provided to students with disability. These relate to legislative requirements under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 and the Disability Standards for Education 2005, in line with the NCCD guidelines (2019).
Information provided about students to the Australian Government for the NCCD includes:
This information assists schools to:
The NCCD provides state and federal governments with the information they need to plan more broadly for the support of students with disability.
The NCCD will have no direct impact on your child and your child will not be involved in any testing process. The school will provide data to the Australian Government in such a way that no individual student will be able to be identified – the privacy and confidentiality of all students is ensured. All information is protected by privacy laws that regulate the collection, storage and disclosure of personal information. To find out more about these matters, please refer to the Australian Government’s Privacy Policy (https://www.education.gov.au/privacy-policy).
Further information about the NCCD can be found on the NCCD Portal (https://www.nccd.edu.au).
