General Information

Additional learning support for students

The College welcomes learners with learning difficulties and disabilities. You may feel that you will need some support with your learning when you come to the College. If so, arrangements can be made for an interview with our Inclusive Learning Team. Assessment will be treated discreetly and in confidence. After the assessment you may be offered support.

This support will vary depending on the individual. Support can be offered from an Inclusive Learning Officer, both in and outside the classroom. You may be loaned a laptop computer, a voice-activated recorder, a spellchecker, or a specialised piece of equipment. Access arrangements may be made for examinations and assignments.

The Inclusive Learning Team is based in Room 201, Parson's Walk Centre, Wigan. You can contact us there, call 01942 761887 or 01942 761849 or email: ilt@wigan-leigh.ac.uk

Our services are available across all sites and in the community. A copy of our Disability Equality Scheme can be found below:
