Hi,
I read the comment about access to grad ceremonies with interest. I
certainly agree that the wider question should definitely focus on how we
interpret 'reasonable adjustment'.
In this specific case, could not 'reasonable adjustment' be covered by the
act of the Chair of Governors going to the student to shake hands, rather
than the student going up onto the stage? On the other hand, it does seem
remarkable that so many Universities have poor access to their main stage
for disabled students, (i have had personal experience of this), when all
it would take would be the addition of a moveable ramp.
Any other views on this?
