Accessibility Strategy

Our vision for Neath Port Talbot is set out in our Corporate Plan:

• to give every child the best start in life
• that every community is thriving and sustainable
• that our environment, heritage and culture can be enjoyed by future generations
• that local people have the skills to access well paid, sustainable jobs in the local green economy

Neath Port Talbot will be a place where all children and young people aged 0-25, regardless of their circumstances, are part of a community that meets their needs and supports them to thrive in a way that works best for them (NPT Early Years, Children & Young People’s Plan 2024).

This accessibility strategy sets out the approach that Neath Port Talbot Council is taking to increase access to education for disabled children and young people, so that they can benefit from educational provision to the same extent to that of children without disabilities (Welsh Government Guidance 2018).
