This is a vertical bar graph that illustrates the proportion of children aged 5 to 14 by met and unmet needs for educational aids and opinion of accommodation by the school system, for the 2005/2006 school year.

The Y axis is measured by percentages and increases by increments of ten from 0 up to 100.

The X axis is comprised of two opinions on accommodation of the child. On the left is 'child being accommodated', and on the right is 'child not being accommodated'. Additionally, for each opinion are two vertical bars. The leftmost bar is 'unmet needs for educational aids', and that on the right is 'met needs for educational aids'.

The rate of those who believe that their child is being accommodated yet have some unmet needs for educational aids is 68.8%.

The rate of those who believe that their child is being accommodated and have met needs for educational aids is 91.9%.

The rate of those who believe that their child is not being accommodated and have unmet needs for educational aids is 31.1%.

The rate of those who believe that their child is not being accommodated and have met needs for educational aids is 7.6%.
