The Disability Discrimination Act is legislation which goals to stop discrimination against disabled people. The Disability Discrimination Act applies to all employers and everyone who provides a service to the public, except the Armed Forces. It is a law designed to end discrimination against impeded people. It also meets the needs of small to medium sized businesses because it is flexible enough to take account of your business’s individual circumstances. People with mutable conditions, such as multiple sclerosis or sickle cell anaemia, are involved under the definition of disability in the DDA. Their needs may change over time.

A student only has to announce a disability, there is no legal requirement for them to prove it. The Disability Discrimination Act 2005 builds on and extends earlier disability discrimination legislation, principally the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. The Act now requires public bodies to elevate equality of opportunity for disabled people. It also allows the government to set minimum standards so that disabled people can use public transport easily. The DDA 1995 departs from the fundamental principles of older UK discrimination law (sex discrimination act 1975 and the race relations act 1976).
