Dear Forum,
Please excuse me for crashing in on your group; Lynn tully at Cranfield
suggested that you may be able to help me.
I'm a tutor at Exeter University, and I convene an informal Equal
Opportunites Forum for interested parties. This is outside the University
committee structure, which has the advantage that no one is excluded;
students, student union staff, all grades of Univ. staff can contribute.
The Forum identified provision for disabled studentsd as a priority; we
would really like to know:
1. does your institution provide an 'Advisor for Disabled Students', or
similiar (eg advocate, support worker,..)
if yes to 1., is this person..
2.on the institution payroll / from outside the institution
3.dedicated to support work for disabled students (staff ?) / combining this
with other work
4. paid / released from other duties for a set number of hours / unpaid
volunteer
5.full time / part tiem (how much ?)
6. anything else that might be relevant
Thanks,
Nick.
