Meet the team
The Disability Advisory Service is divided into three teams. These are:
Disability Advisory Service Teams
Disability advisors
Operations team
Specific learning difficulties tutors
Our team provides face to face screenings for specific learning difficulties (SpLDs). We then refer students with enough indicators for a full diagnostic assessment. We provide study skills support sessions for an hour each week (on a flexible fixed term basis). In addition, there are themed workshops for small groups of students, and we work closely with external inclusive technology trainers to provide an integrated in-house provision.
