Hi Everyone,
I was wondering whether anyone can help me with an enquiry from a student. He is 6 foot 8 inches tall, and his original request was for extra legroom during exams, which I am hoping to get. He is also undergoing chiropractic treatment for bad posture and back problems, which are exacerbated, particularly in exams. Does anyone have any experience of support provided by LEAs for equipment or arrangements for people who are particularly tall and developing injuries associated with it?
Also, is there a height at which being tall becomes a disability in itself?
Thanks for any help,
Adam
