The Higher Education Funding Council for England is currently considering
the detail of the proposed new funding method for teaching, as set out in
HEFCE Circular 21/96.
An advisory group has been established to consider premium weights for
student-related factors. To inform the group's discussions of a premium
weight for students with disabilities the Council wishes to gather further
information on the number of students, in each institution, in receipt of
Disabled Students' Allowances (DSAs).
The Council would be grateful to hear from any institution that has readily
available data on the number of its students in receipt of a DSA.
All data will be treated in the strictest confidence and will be used only
to inform the discussions of the advisory group.
Data should be forwarded by Wednesday 19 February to:
