ADCET Podcast: Barriers Before Entry - Improving Pre-Admission Guidance for University Applicants with Disability

This ADCET podcast is the audio version of our webinar: Barriers Before Entry - Improving Pre-Admission Guidance for University Applicants with Disability. What messages do our admissions pages send about who belongs in higher education? Through a systematic review of medical school websites this study highlighted gaps between inclusive policy and everyday practice. Despite sector wide guidelines, disability is often framed as a problem to manage rather than a valued dimension of diversity.Laura Gray and Bryony McNeill, from Deakin University, shared the details of their study as well as identified practical opportunities for educators to create clearer, safer, and more inclusive pre-admission communication. 

We hope you find this presentation interesting and engaging and you can find additional information and resources supporting this webinar on the ADCET website.
