Dear All
Could people provide any general details about how they deal with students
on courses in partner colleges (mainly FE). In terms of disability
services do you leave it entirely to the partner college to sort out? Does
it depend on agreements reached when the course is drawn up? It seems more
clear cut for directly funded students but what about indirectly funded
students? What if you are aware that the partner college is not very clued
up on DSA etc or that term-time only staff won't be in over the summer to
put support in place for the start of term. Do you tend to step in, in
order to ensure support is available (given that are ultimately your
students?) Any information would be helpful.
Would anyone be interested in writing some guidance for FE/HE with me on
this topic using their knowledge of the area?
