We provide specialist support for students with dyslexia and other specific learning differences (SpLD). This type of support is prioritised for students who are on accredited courses with substantial reading and writing.
We can offer:
- A dyslexia screening or assessment for exam access as appropriate
- Advice on helpful learning strategies
- Individual learning support sessions to work on specific areas of difficulty if you are on a course with substantial reading and writing
- Students on an accredited course may be entitled to special arrangements for their exam. However, these can only be put in place if they have a valid written report that recommends particular exam concessions.
Here are some useful learning and studying strategies from the British Dyslexia Association if you are a student with dyslexia:
