We require evidence from a medical professional that confirms your disability or condition eg Doctor’s / Consultant’s letter, Educational Psychologist or Specialist Teacher’s Assessment report. Ensure your evidence is provided on official header paper and it is dated. It is beneficial if your evidence specifies the reasonable adjustment(s) required and for how long the reasonable adjustment(s) is needed for. Some evidence may need to have a recent date, but evidence within the last 5 years may be suitable for permanent conditions. If you are unsure what documents to provide please contact us for further advice. We may request further supporting evidence.

If you are applying for Disabled Students’ Allowances (DSA) they may have other evidence requirements, speak to your Programme Team if you need help with this application.

By requesting permission to record you agree recordings will be for your own study purpose, not to upload or share them with others and to delete them after completion of the module.

Students can apply for a Disabled Students Allowance for a Specialist equipment allowance. Visit www.gov.uk for further information.

We will use and protect your personal data in accordance with current data protection legislation to evaluate your claim and make reasonable adjustments to your assessment where approved. We will share the information you have provided with appropriate members of staff and third parties where necessary to implement a reasonable adjustment. Further details, including your rights, the disclosure of data to third parties, storage, retention and how to amend your personal data, can be found within our Privacy Notice.

The reasonable adjustment(s) applied to your teaching experience and assessment mitigate disadvantage you may incur from educational needs/medical condition. Thus the marking policy will be fairly applied to your assessment(s) to ensure you have access to a learning experience comparable to that of your peers.
