Abstract

The article focuses on the study which investigates the mechanisms for managing the transition from several schools, college and work to university for disabled students. It states that it is important for the students with a disability who admits in the university must identify themselves earlier so that appropriate adjustments can be made for them including teaching, assessment and pastoral care. It also mentions that it has been found that the number of students with a disability entering Great Britain higher education is likely to increase and higher education institutions need to be aware of the adjustments that may potentially be required, as well as the timeliness of such adjustments.
