Abstract

This chapter is concerned with national and local policy in Higher Education (HE) and disability since the early 1990s. As discussed in Chapter Two (Sections 2.2 and 2.4), widening participation in HE has been high on recent governments’ policy agendas (Archer et al., 2003; Beauchamp-Pryor, 2007; HEFCE, 2009a; 2010).
