Student receiving one-to-one support

Disabilities

Lancaster University is a Disability Confident Committed employer (Level 1). Disability Confident is a government scheme aimed at creating a movement of change, encouraging employers to think differently about disability and to improve how they recruit, retain, and develop disabled people.

Within the Psychology Department, in both our Undergraduate and Postgraduate programmes, we are committed to ensuring that all of our students are supported in accessing the teaching and learning activities that we provide through the provision of reasonable adjustments for recognised impairments. In recent years, we have supported students with learning difficulties, like dyslexia and dyspraxia, visual and auditory impairments, Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), mental health conditions, and physical impairments. We firmly believe that everyone should be supported in accessing and excelling in Higher Education.
