Department support

Each academic department has an AccessAbility Tutor. The AccessAbility Tutor is a named person within your academic department who you can talk to about any disability-related issues. You can find the name and contact details of your AccessAbility Tutor by looking at the AA Tutors list, or by contacting the AccessAbility team.

Your first port of call should be AccessAbility for help with accommodation, extra time in exams, applying for a DSA etc. The departmental AccessAbility Tutor is there to help you with questions that specifically relate to your course.

Questions to direct to the AccessAbility Tutor in your department might be:

• My assessment of study needs report suggests that I should be given course notes in advance of the lecture. Can you arrange this?
• My educational psychologist's report suggests that I should have advance warning if I am to be asked to read out loud in a seminar. Can you make my tutors aware of this?

If you are not sure who to approach for help, contact the AccessAbility team first and we will advise you.
