Subject: DSA system and Asperger's Syndrome
Hello all,
Just thought I'd share this quote from an applicant with Asperger's
Syndrome:
"The DSA assessment also contains a very scary page of instructions for
the student, which are exactly the kinds of things I find impossible.
All this disability support stuff seems like you'd have to be
non-disabled in order to manage it. :(
I'm not stupid, just stressed and confused by a system I don't
understand and a lot of demands I can't meet."
Maybe this could be used in the next review of the system?
Thanks,
Bryan
