A member of the University Executive should be designated as having responsibility for the setting and monitoring of targets, in conjunction with other senior managers. This Policy should be embedded within all planning and review procedures by the University, including those of Faculties, Schools and Departments. The Students' Union should be encouraged to develop its own policy in relation to disability. The University will ensure that a programme of training is offered to staff to familiarise themselves with and enable them to fulfil the requirements of the policy. The Development and Training Section will also offer staff training programmes to increase awareness of the needs of persons with disabilities.
Care needs to be taken that an appropriate degree of confidentiality is maintained.
