Barriers that hinder children with disabilities from attending school may vary. Often schools and classrooms are not adapted to the special needs of children with disabilities. Beyond the obstacles of gaining physical access to the facility itself, other barriers can include a lack of suitable teaching materials (Braille, sign language interpreters, large print textbooks etc), or a lack of teachers trained to deal with the needs of children with disabilities. Even if children with disabilities gain access to schools, many do not attend because toilet facilities at the schools are inaccessible. Matriculation rates are also lower among students with disabilities.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
