I am about to start my pgce year through university. I’ve been asked whether I give permission for my university to pass on details of my diagnosis to my placement schools but I don’t know if I should. Obviously this shouldn’t be the way but I am so scared of facing adversity due to my diagnosis but equally I don’t want to deny support that may be available to me. Any advice?
It is absolutely up to you, but if it were me I would tell them. You could get more support, and any adversity you would face due to them knowing about your diagnosis would be highly immoral and potentially illegal.
