Comb-bound materials, which lie flat when opened, are available for many courses. Equipment loan Discuss your requirements with an adviser at your Regional Centre, who will make an application to the Access Technology Loan Scheme, or perhaps suggest other ideas. Sometimes quite low-tech items can provide the solution. There is also an Access Technology Loan Scheme through which we may be able to provide equipment to help with your studies. The scheme includes a needs assessment, the free loan of equipment and training.
Support is, however, subject to the availability of resources.
We offer a good deal of flexibility. If you are likely to need examination arrangements such as extra time, rest breaks, a scribe or use of a computer, you will be asked to produce written medical evidence to support your request. If you usually have a scribe you might be able to have the same person in the examination. If you select a course with a residential school, you can consider whether you need support. For example, we may be able to organise the loan of a high quality audio-cassette recorder, or a person to take notes.
