Book synopsis

Under the Equality Act (2010), all schools and service providers have a legal obligation to make provision for disabled pupils, staff and school users. If you're feeling confused about the Equality Act and how it affects your setting, this essential book will help you unpick the issues in a user-friendly and easily accessible way.

This highly practical resource explains the main parts of Equality Act as it affects disability in a way that will
encourage all members of staff within a school to feel confident that they are correctly implementing its
requirements. It uses examples and case studies throughout, and highlights the key factors for success in
making reasonable adjustments. It also takes readers through the process of an alleged act of discrimination
against the school, and how it may be resolved, up to and including the SEND tribunal process.

The author brings a wealth of experience to this topic, both as a parent of a disabled child and as a trainer of
professionals. She uses her unique insight to develop skills and awareness in anyone who follows her material, and
shows through tried and tested concepts and methods, how schools and settings can avoid costly and stressful
tribunals. Headteachers, teachers, SENCos, Sure Start Centre Managers and anyone who works in educational
settings will find this book essential to their professional development and a fantastic source of support and help.
