Information for staff supporting student access and inclusion

UTS aims to support the development and implementation of an inclusive educational environment in which all students—including students with disability—can access, participate and ultimately succeed in university education.

Students have a range of abilities, cultural backgrounds, learning styles and educational needs. 

For students with disability, access and inclusion in the social environment and extracurricular activities is equally important.

The Australian Disability Clearinghouse on Education and Training (ADCET) provides information, advice and resources to disability practitioners, academics, teachers and students on inclusive practices within the higher education sector in order to facilitate successful outcomes and improve the educational experience for students with disability.

Acknowledgement of Country

UTS acknowledges the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the Boorooberongal people of the Dharug Nation, the Bidiagal people and the Gamaygal people, upon whose ancestral lands our university stands. We would also like to pay respect to the Elders both past and present, acknowledging them as the traditional custodians of knowledge for these lands.
