Reasonable Adjustment
A reasonable adjustment is any measure or action that a student requires because of their
disability, and which has the effect of assisting the student to access and participate in education
and training on the same basis as students without a disability. An adjustment is reasonable if it
achieves this purpose while taking into account factors such as the nature of the student’s
disability, the views of the student, the potential effect of the adjustment on the student and others
who might be affected, and the costs and benefits of making the adjustment.
ACTE will also maintain the academic integrity of a course and to consider the requirements or
components that are inherent or essential to its nature when assessing whether an adjustment is
reasonable. There may be more than one adjustment that is reasonable in a given set of
circumstances; ACTE will make adjustments that are reasonable and that do not cause the RTO
unjustifiable hardship.
