Additional Learning Support

Help is available if you have (or think you have) a learning difficulty, disability or medical condition.  The Learning Support team can help you in class or in individual support sessions.  Please give details on your application form or at your interview, or by contacting Learning Support directly.  It is also important to tell us if you had special examination arrangements at school, such as the use of a laptop or extra time, as we can make similar arrangements for you.

• Aspergers and Autism Syndromes

• Specialised assessment of needs before and during the course
• Access to specialist equipment and software
