Notes	The Strategy would like to see the following tracked – Proportion of students with disability who complete Year 12 (or equivalent). Available data do not allow the exact measure listed by the Strategy to be tracked. Currently an alternative measure is reported. The currently reported measure provides a retrospective look at adults aged 20 and over who had completed Year 12, rather than providing a forecast of completion rates for students with disability, or the proportion of current enrolments who complete Year 12 in a given year.
