Disability discrimination is where a person (child, young person or adult) who has a disability is treated less favourably than non-disabled people.
Under the Equality Act 2010, it is against the law to discriminate against disabled people in various areas of their lives. This includes disability discrimination of children and young people within education. You can appeal to the SEND Tribunal about disability discrimination of children and young people within education.
