Survey on Wheelchair Accessibility in Schools

Whizz Kidz is the UK's leading charity for young wheelchair users. We create opportunities for young wheelchair users to get the equipment, skills and confidence to go further. 

Earlier this month, we launched the largest UK survey of young wheelchair users and schools. The Whizz Kidz School Report: Young Wheelchair Users in Education Survey aims to shine a light on positive and negative school experiences. We want to identify gaps in support and find ways to increase and support inclusion in schools. 

Why This Survey Matters: Wheelchair accessibility and inclusivity are crucial to creating a supportive and equitable educational environment. By encouraging education professionals in your local community to participate in this survey, they will contribute to a comprehensive study that seeks to identify current challenges and opportunities for enhancing accessibility for all students. 

The survey will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete, is anonymous, and will close on 25 October 2024. The survey is available here :
