The situation of disabled students in Polish schools and universities has improved over the last years, however it is still not perfect. As NIK’s audit showed, in many places barriers still exist, which makes it impossible for the disabled to function in the same way as able students do. Problems stem from the construction of buildings, which are not adjusted to the needs of the disabled, unfriendly technical facilities and difficulties with accessing the full educational offer. Despite these shortages, the majority of the schools have not fully used the funds they receive for current support for the disabled.
