In this paper special emphasis is placed on the analysis of data, collected through interviews, about the educational opportunities of young people with physical disabilities. Theoretical data on education and legislative frameworks related to the rights of persons with disabilities and their educational potential had been collected first, as well as data on the processes and opportunities for employment of persons with disabilities. Then the semi-structured interviews were used to collect sociodemographic data and information on the educational experience of students with physical disabilities, from their primary education up to higher education. In addition, this paper presents data on the problems that young people with disabilities face throughout their education. These problems include architectural barriers, inadequate education of teachers and educational staff regarding access and providing information to students with disabilities, difficulties in using public transport, discrimination by peers and teachers. At the end, students provided their opinion on the higher education whether they think they are ready to enter the labour market.
