Folder Transition to University: Online guidance for young people with vision impairment
Research carried out as part of the Birmingham University/RNIB longitudinal transitions project has identified a number of challenges for young people with VI in applying for and going to university. In addition to describing the problems they encountered, the research participants told us that they would have benefited from having a single source of detailed guidance on the university process that was tailored to the needs of young people with VI. They also told us that they would prefer to have this guidance available as an online resource.
As a result, with funding from NatSIP through the DfE grant programme, RNIB and the Visual Impairment Centre for Teaching and Research at Birmingham University has produced tailored, online guidance for young people with VI on transition to university.
