of Escape for Disabled People Manual for the university. You can access

> * Are your PEEPS drawn up by one department/individual or as a cross departmental exercise?
> * Which department's) are tasked with or involved in drawing up PEEPS?
> * Who decides which students require a PEEP?
> * Do you draw up generic or template PEEPS for certain groups of students and/or certain areas that you amend to suit or is each PEEPS drawn up from scratch?
> * How much student involvement in the PEEPS completion do you require?
> * Who signs off the completed PEEP?
> * Is the PEEP in place prior to the student arrival?
> * How often and by whom is the PEEP reviewed?
> * At what point in the student application process is the PEEP compiled?
