Personal assistance at school and college for people with disabilities
If you have a physical disability, our personal assistants can provide practical support at school or college, to help you reach your potential.
How can we help you at school/college?
IWA at Home can provide you with a skilled personal assistant, who will support you to live life to the full in school and college. They can take notes with you in class, help you get books from the library and assist with photocopying. Our classroom assistants can provide additional support at exam time.
Your personal assistant can also drive your accessible vehicle or assist you in accessing public transport to and from your place of study. While you’re on campus, they will fulfill your personal care needs and provide support at lunch and break times.
College life is not all about study, so your personal assistant can accompany you to social events so that you can spend leisure time with your classmates and widen your social circle.
Talk to your Access Officer today about an accessibility grant and progress your journey to college.
