How can we support you?
Students with a stammer or stutter may find activities such as presentations particularly challenging.
Student Wellbeing Accessibility Advisers may be able to:
- Create a Study Needs Agreement (SNA) that outlines appropriate adjustments, such as presenting to a smaller group where suitable.
- Help teaching staff understand how they can best support you.
- Arrange specialist tuition for a limited period to help you develop strategies and manage anxiety.
- Discuss support options that may help you demonstrate your knowledge and reach your full potential.
Please note that adjustments depend on the requirements of your course. The University must ensure that all students meet core learning outcomes and any professional body requirements.
