Disability group
Details a disability group. For each disability group, you can add and edit the following information:
Unique value, such as 3, that must not exceed the maximum length of the corresponding field in an integrated system, such as a student management system.
After saving, the value cannot be edited.
Description, such as Deaf or hearing impairment, is used to select the disability group, and full description, such as Person is deaf or has a serious hearing impairment, is used for administrative purposes only.

Codes that define the disability type, based on the applicant's own self-assessment, for reporting purposes, such as 57.
Codes that define whether the applicant is in receipt of disabled students' allowance for reporting purposes, such as 5.
If selected, the entity or field can have the value. If cleared after the value has been selected for the entity or field, the entity or field keeps the value. However, the value is no longer available for selection.
