hi colleagues
I agree with Eleanor
something along the lines of Additional Support Allowance
we send out additional supports needs booklets to students who
have registered on UCAS with a disability
lots of students are uneasy being labelled as disabled
perhaps the DfES would consider renaming the allowance!
