Support is arranged depending on your individual needs. It is your support and you will be involved in regular discussions to talk about your support. You can ask for changes to be made to your support at any time. At the beginning of the year you will be asked to agree a Support Plan. This explains the types of support we will give you, the levels of that support and over what period.

Additional Support could include:

• Adjustments by your subject tutors

• Communication support

• Note-taking support

• Reader support

• In or out of class support by a member of the staff

• Provision of assistive equipment and technology (subject to availability)

Complaints and Appeals
