There are two small rooms, where you can be assessed in confidence for exam concessions and neurodiversity/dyslexia.

All attendance is recorded and the help and support you receive monitored, so we can evaluate your progress.
Student surveys will also be carried out to ensure your needs are consistently being met and improved.
At our Sixth Form Campus the study centres offer one-to-one support. You can book in for weekly sessions or drop in for one-off help with maths and English.
Time management and communication mini sessions are held and there is exam concession testing (by teacher referral only).
