Education and training

Access, support and inclusive learning environments.

In simple terms

Learning environments should be designed so disabled learners can participate, receive information and demonstrate learning without unnecessary barriers.

Questions to help you understand the barrier

  • Can you access the learning materials, platform and venue?
  • Do you need materials in another format or more flexible ways to participate?
  • Are assessments creating a barrier unrelated to what is actually being assessed?

Possible next steps

  1. Ask the institution for its disability support or reasonable accommodation process.
  2. List the specific barriers and practical changes that would help.
  3. Request decisions and agreed support in writing.
