Access for Deaf and hard of hearing students  

We can provide the following support for deaf and hard of hearing students:

• In-class communication support for deaf students: Communication Support Workers and Notetakers (manual or electronic); 1:1 support tutorials 
• Radio aids for hard of hearing students 
• Special arrangements for exams:  e.g. communication support and extra time. 

To apply for in-class communication or note-taking support, please contact us at least 3 - 4 weeks before the course starts. You can come to the Wednesday drop-in session or contact us to make an appointment. 

We try to support as many students as possible but support cannot be guaranteed.

To apply for use of a radio aid: 

Please contact us and we will book the equipment for you. 

If you have not used a radio aid before we can arrange an appointment for you to try one.
