Getting there and back again
For
many learners with learning difficulties or disabilities
transport is a key factor in whether they are able to
participate and succeed in learning. Transport issues are
not all directly related to financial constraints: there
are challenges around transport arrangements, transport
routes, availability and reliability of both public and
contracted transport, physical access, attitudes of
transport staff and of course transport funding.
Getting there and back again is a publication aimed at further education providers but has relevance to others working with adult learners. It offers advice and opportunities to think about assessment, working with other organisations, travel training, concessionary and subsidised schemes and funding for adults with learning difficulties and or disabilities.
