Abstract

Drawing on survey data of 224 students at a London-based university, this study brings attention to ‘ecological niches’ that combine to produce contexts that are likely to have an effect on the access, participation and graduate outcomes of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). While the results suggest dissonance between students’ and academics’ attitudes and actions relating to equality, diversity and inclusion, the findings provide the groundwork for larger-scale research and scholarly activities. They also present an opportunity for strategic development linked to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals 4 (quality education); 10 (reduced inequalities); and 16 (peace, justice and strong institutions).
