The Section 24 of the DDO sets out circumstances in which it is
unlawful for educational establishments to discriminate against a
student or a prospective student with a disability. Except where
there can be shown to be unjustifiable hardship and except in
relation to the paragraph1.3 below, the DDO makes it unlawful for
an educational establishment to discriminate against:
i. an applicant with a disability by refusing or failing to accept his
or her application for admission as a student;
ii. a person with a disability by setting less favourable terms or
conditions on which it is prepared to admit that person as a
student;
iii. a student of that educational establishment by denying or
limiting him or her to any benefit, service or facility provided by
it;
iv. a student with a disability by expelling him or her; or
v. a student with a disability by subjecting him or her to any other
detriment.
