Disability support
Support and reasonable adjustments are available at BCU for students with a disability, a Specific Learning Difficulty (such as dyslexia), a neurodivergence (such as autism or ADHD), a long-term health condition or a mental health difficulty.
The Student Inclusion Team provides the following services:
- ·Appointments and drop-ins, whichever BCU campus you are studying on.
- ·Free dyslexia screenings, assistance in getting a diagnostic assessment and support for students who have dyslexia.
- ·Reasonable adjustments you may need for exams, assessments, teaching sessions and course materials and information.
- ·Help with applications for Disabled Students’ Allowances (DSAs) where relevant (UK students only).
- ·Study support workers where appropriate e.g. mentors or study skills tutors.
- ·Advice about enabling equipment and software.
- ·Information about campus accessibility, car parking and other individual requirements.
The Student Inclusion Team works closely with the Mental Health and Wellbeing Team where a student needs to use the services of both teams.
