Dyslexia provision at Ravensbourne
We want to support the particular learning requirements of dyslexic students at the College and can do so in a variety of ways:
We can provide screening, advice and information in order to help you make informed decisions. Discussions are conducted in strict confidence.
We can help you to identify how you can best use support and equipment to develop your abilities as an independent learner.
We offer guidance and support in applying for the Disabled Students Allowance (DSA).
We can organise diagnostic assessments through an Educational Psychologist and can discuss the implications of diagnoses. The College will meet the cost of an assessment where funds are available.
We can arrange Study Aids and Study Strategies Assessments, (SASSA) and can provide advice on support, equipment and training.
We can help to organise Non-Medical Helpers (NMH) these are people who can help with, for example, one to one dyslexia tuition, note-taking, and scribing. See the Support for Learning brochure sections on dyslexia.
We can work with your Course leader to make reasonable adjustments to teaching, learning and assessment and allow extra time for examinations.
Please contact the Student Welfare Officer - Sue Cowan if you need any assistance on any of the above: telephone: ext.4982 or email: Sue Cowan
