Disability Inclusion Funding and Support

Tier 2 Funding Planner tool on SPOT

Schools receiving Disability Inclusion Tier 2 funding can use the new Funding Planner tool on the Strategic Planning Online Tool (SPOT), to plan how they will use their Tier 2 funding allocations, as part of their Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) development.

The Funding Planner tool enables schools to plan their expenditure of Tier 2 funding, in addition to Equity (Social Disadvantage) funding and Schools Mental Health fund allocations, in support of their AIP priorities.

Through the Funding Planner, schools can:

• identify which of their activities will draw on Tier 2 funding
• specify the value of Tier 2 funding to be allocated per activity
• select the category and subcategory of Tier 2 expenditure for each activity identified as using Tier 2 funding (multiple subcategories may be selected where applicable).

Schools are required to report all Disability Inclusion Tier 2 expenditure in CASES21 and eduPay.

Information on completing the Funding Planner is available on the AIP Guidelines in the Policy and Advisory Library (PAL).
