Disability and accessibility

Disabled people can experience barriers in accessing education due to a broad range of physical or non-physical conditions. This includes learning differences such as dyslexia and AD(H)D, mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, sensory impairments such as hearing or sight loss, neuro-diverse conditions such as autism and physical disabilities affecting a range of mobilities. 

 


Disability is defined in the Equality Act 2010 as 鈥渁 physical or mental impairment that has a 鈥榮ubstantial鈥� and 鈥榣ong-term鈥� negative effect on your ability to do normal daily activities鈥�.

 

As a university, we have a duty to remove barriers for our students, staff and visitors and make 鈥渞easonable adjustments鈥� to ensure those with a disability are not placed at a significant disadvantage compared to non-disabled people. At 糖心Vlog we provide these adjustments through a range of facilities and support services and we constantly strive to do more to provide an inclusive environment that offers equal opportunities to all.
