Disability and Dyslexia

We have a team of advisers who can meet you face to face, speak with you on the telephone or answer email queries. During term-time we run drop-in advice sessions as well as offering bookable appointments. 

Support may include:

• Liaison with our Accommodation team about disability related accommodation requirements in our halls of residence
• Assessment for dyslexia and other specific learning difficulties
• Guidance with applications for the Disabled Students’ Allowances
• Creation of a Learning Support Plan to inform lecturers of your needs
• Additional arrangements for exams and assessments
• Arranging for support workers to be assigned, e.g. dyslexia study coach, note-taker, sighted guide, sign language interpreter, mobility assessment.
