An event for school leaders & disabled educators, celebrating the unique skills talents & abilities that disabled educators bring to schools
About this Event
Approximately 22% of the population are disabled in some way, yet in education only 4% of the workforce identify as disabled. Where are the missing 18%? What can school leaders do to ensure that all schools are fully representative and accessible? How can we challenge ableism? How can we ensure everyone belongs? This event aims to provide the answers to these questions and much more.

About
Disability is often the forgotten characteristic and there are widely held negative assumptions made about disabled people. At DisabilityEdUK we want to support disabled educators to be fully contributing members in education in every role and at every level of leadership. We believe that school leaders have an important role to play in making the disabled workforce in education more accessible and representative of disabled educators everywhere which is why leadership development is a central aspect of our organization.
