Statute overview

About this statute

This Order sets out how persons with disabilities are to be specially treated in schools. The State must support needy students with disabilities, including by providing school requirements, bursaries or study loans, and help with accommodation in certain public or conventioned higher education institutions. The education ministry must set aside annual budget funds to pay for pupils or students with disabilities, and a public bursary-and-loans agency covers the required funds for students in higher education. Teachers in ordinary schools must give special care and accommodations to students with disabilities. Teacher training institutions must teach how to help pupils or students with disabilities study without obstacles.
