Disability and educational institutions - A non doctrinal research

Abstract

Disability is all about physical or mental impairment in an individual either from birth or gained during lifetime of an individual which leads to personal or social limitations. It is interpreted in various ways according to various models like disability from the point of view of medical model is basically subject to medical correction, from social model perspective it is basically about interaction of the disable person with the environment, his health and himself. It is because of the social construction of disability that puts limitations on it, not accepting disability as part of human diversity and thus leading these people to be subject of oppression and discrimination. Thus, adjusting disable students within educational institution is a tedious task as each criteria of disability needs to be individually assessed. Thus, concluding on certain remarkable terms disability is just a situation how well is it adjusted and accommodated in society.
