Project information

The CARS (creating accessible resources for staff) project ran from January 2003 to December 2005 and was funded by the Higher Education Funding Council (HEFCE) for England as part of a major programme for improving disability provision.

This website, Making your teaching inclusive, was developed by the CARS project to support teaching staff in higher education institutions in England and Wales in understanding the needs of disabled students and teaching them effectively - thereby contributing significantly to an acknowledged high priority need in national disability provision.

The project was led by the Student Services (Teaching & Learner Support) unit at The Open University with contributions and support from higher education disability specialists.
