He Study Support

Sometimes, students need a bit more support than the formal and informal academic support readily offered by our lecturers and tutors. Confidential, regular 1:1 support sessions are accessed through the Disabled Students’ Allowance. Our experienced team offer 1:1 support sessions for students with officially diagnosed Specific Learning Differences such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADHD and Autistic Spectrum conditions. We can also provide one off 1:1 meetings with students, exam access arrangements, initial screening for possible specific learning differences, and if necessary, refer for further assessment.
