Who are carers?
A carer provides care for dependent children, someone with a disability and/or medical condition, or someone who is of old age. Students who identify as either of the above are more likely to have lower participation and success at university and fewer employment opportunities available to them, and face difficulty balancing work, university and/or caring commitments while they study.
