Eleanor
I think that's a very good point, thank you.
I am going to amend my form accordingly.

Subject: Re: Consent to disclose information
One amendment that might be worth considering in light of
the new legal situations is the inclusion of a clause where
the student can say that they do NOT want any information
passed on to other members of staff at this time. It
leaves the door open for them to keep in touch with you and
amend it later if they discover they want the support that
has been proposed, but keeps the institution and advisers
safe from flak if things don't go as well as the student
hoped and they try to claim it is due to lack of support
relating to a disability that has been disclosed.
