Education Handbook – Saskatchewan

After holding focus groups across Saskatchewan, CNIB created this legal information handbook to provide helpful responses to some of the most common questions we heard. 

In the handbook below, you’ll find: 

• An overview of your most important legal rights related to education
• Answers to common questions like 
  • "My child will be starting school.  What can I do to ensure that my child's sight loss is accommodated?"
  • "My post-secondary institution has advised me that it cannot accommodate certain aspects of my degree/diploma (such as a practicum). I have been told that I must switch programs/placements or leave the institution. What can I do?"
• Links to helpful legal services and community supports

The Know Your Rights legal Information handbooks are available in two different formats:
