Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if her Department a) has recently made and b) plans to make changes to the eligibility criteria for Disabled Students Allowance.

The department has not recently made changes to the eligibility criteria for Disabled Students’ Allowance and has no current plans to do so.

As part of wider reforms set out in the government’s post-16 education and skills white paper, the department is committed to improving access and support for all students in higher education, including those with disabilities.
