BackgroundAt a time of considerable change in student finance arrangements for disabled students, higher education providers in England are looking at the pros and cons of different delivery models, the costs involved and how and where to best implement changes. There is considerable best practice and innovation nationally, and this is helpful in informing this process. However, as the majority of higher education providers in England operate within the existing funding regime for disability support, delivered through Disabled Students Allowances (DSAs), it is difficult to gain a clear understanding of the full range of alternative solutions to funding and delivering this support. In addition, there is no review of the literature addressing these approaches both internationally and in the UK. This project aims to draw on the experience of higher education providers in other countries who share a commitment to enabling success for disabled students whilst operating within different financial and policy environments.
