Both Students and Caregivers can have up to three ethnicities recorded against them. Students also have  a single overall Ethnic Group that is embedded in the system and cannot be changed manually; the Embedded Ethnic group is based on the hierarchy listed and is held in the Student file.

Australia has two groups; the order below indicates the hierarchy:
– Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait
