This overview paper focuses on disability discrimination in respect of ICT and the provision of educational services in UK publicly-funded further and higher education. However, it should be noted that an educational establishment has similar duties with regard to its employees and to third parties to whom it provides non-educational services (for example, conference hosting, and vacation accommodation letting). Colleges and universities should be familiar with these duties which have been in force for some time now and are contained in Part II (Employment) and Part III (Service Provision) of the DDA and are discussed briefly here.
