On 1 September 2002, part IV of the Disability and Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA), inserted by the Special Needs and Disability Act 2001, came into force. The new provisions seek to prevent discrimination against disabled people in their access education. They aim to ensure that disabled children are not disadvantaged and to allow for their inclusion as far as possible within mainstream education.
