Disclosure

Here at Bucks we use a disclosure agreement to ensure that information is shared with the right people to provide you with the appropriate support. At your first meeting with the Disability Service you will be asked to give your consent to enable us to share relevant information with others.

The Disability Service only contacts others on a need to know basis and we will normally be acting on your behalf, for example liaising with your school or with external funding bodies.

The Disability Service will always uphold your wishes in terms of disclosure, however if at any time we become seriously concerned about either your health or those around you, we will contact the emergency/medical services. We would only do this without your permission in exceptional circumstances and would always inform you after we have done so of the action we have taken.

If you have any concerns regarding the level of disclosure please contact your student adviser.
