Disability Standards for Education for early childhood (prior to school)
This course is designed to help you uphold your legal obligations under the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (DDA) and the Disability Standards for Education 2005 (the Standards). These obligations focus on providing fair access to education for students with disability.
As you will discover by doing this course, Australians with disability still face considerable barriers, many of which begin at school. In your leadership role as an educator, you can make a huge difference. Your positive attitude and actions towards students with disability can set a high standard for your whole community.
