Disability and Learning Support Service: Do you have a disability or learning difference, and may require additional support during your studies? The Disability & Learning Support Service (DLSS) at the University can meet with you and put support in place with regards to your learning. They can create a tailored “Schedule of Adjustments” for you, which will meet your needs and support you in your studies. Some common conditions in students supported by DLSS: ADHD, Autism Spectrum Condition, Bipolar Disorder, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, and other mental and physical health conditions and learning differences. It is beneficial for students to make contact with this team as early as possible, and prior to you commencing on the programme, if possible. You can contact the team directly via email to start the registration process. This article was published on 2024-10-14
