I raised this issue because I'm worried that students with physical and/or
sensory disabilities might not get essential equipment or support in place
at the start of term this year. I mean students who aren't in a position to
demonstrate either their strengths or their weaknesses without specialist
assistive technology aids or personal assistance strategies (funded from the
DSA). Please start another thread if you want a general debate about how
the DSA is used or misused, so the rest of us can work out how to advise and
support these students.
