Contacting Learning Support
If you have a medical condition, learning difference, neurodiversity, disability, or any physical or mental health difficulties, and feel you may require screening or adjustments for teaching or assessments please contact us.
How we can help you
Reasonable Adjustments
If you have a learning difficulty or disability, you may be entitled to reasonable adjustments in your examinations and assessments with BPP. You must contact the Learning Support team at least one month before the exam to arrange this.
Application Disclosure
We encourage you to tell us about any learning difficulty, disability, or health condition when making your application. This ensures that we can plan support in advance.
Confidentiality
All information disclosed to BPP or discussed with a member of the Learning Support team will be dealt with in the strictest confidence. It will only be shared with staff at BPP and, where specialist support is provided, with our specialist support staff on a ‘need to know’ basis. You will be invited to complete a disclosure form so you can restrict where the information is shared. We will not share your information with your employers without your consent.
External Exams
If you need adjustments or concessions for exams with an external board, you will need to apply separately according to the specific requirements of each exam board. Please check the exam board’s requirements and deadlines for more details.
