Section 60 — Human Rights Act 1993: Further exceptions in relation to disability

60 Further exceptions in relation to disability (1) Nothing in section 57 applies to a person whose disability is such that that person requires special services or facilities that in the circumstances cannot reasonably be made available (being services or facilities that are required to enable the person to participate in the educational programme of an establishment referred to in that section or to enable the person to derive substantial benefits from that programme). (2) Subject to subsection (3) of this section, nothing in section 57 of this Act shall apply where the person's disability is such that there would be a risk of harm to that person or to others, including the risk of infecting others with an illness, if that person were to be admitted to an educational establishment and it is not reasonable to take that risk. (3) Nothing in subsection (2) of this section shall apply if the person in charge of the educational establishment could, without unreasonable disruption, take reasonable measures to reduce the risk to a normal level.
