Team working and information sharing

It is also important to realise that boundaries include allowing for our own limits of responsibility and recognising when and how to involve others.
Supporting students with any disability issue can benefit at times from appropriate team-working, with teaching staff having confidence and knowledge about when to involve Student Support Services and other appropriate staff, and vice versa.
Any information sharing must be done with the agreement of the student, establishing clear lines about who shares any information and emphasising the requirement of strict confidentiality and data protection. You may also have to consider ages of students and parental consent.
All efforts have been made to ensure materials created by the EDU comply with current accessibility guidelines (JISC: Support for learners with disabilities).
If further assistance is required with accessibility matters please contact the student support section in your academic partner UHI: Accessing learner support.
