Summary
The Disability Rights Commission has written and produced this revised Code of Practice concerning new duties (under the provisions of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and associated regulations) upon providers of post-16 education and related services which came into force on 1 September 2006.
This Code replaces the previous Code of Practice for providers of post-16 education and related services, which was first published in 2002.
The new duties aim to reduce inequalities experienced by disabled people in relation to post-16 education. By doing this, it is expected that the educational attainment levels of disabled people will significantly improve and that this, in turn, will diminish inequalities disabled people experience in access to, and progression within, the labour market.
