Education Handbook – Prince Edward Island

Main Content

After holding focus groups across Prince Edward Island, 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 my child's sight loss is accommodated?”
    • "Despite my requests, I have not received the accommodations that I require.  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:

 

If you’d like to receive this handbook in Braille or DAISY format, please email knowyourrights@cnib.ca. Did this handbook answer your question or did it connect you to a helpful resource? Please let us know!

The Know Your Rights – Prince Edward Island project was graciously funded by the Law Foundation of Prince Edward Island and The Law Foundation of Ontario.
