Disability Policy

The Severn Business College is committed to promoting access to people with disabilities. Severn Business College will:

• Encourage applications to study at the College from people with disabilities.
• Judge applicants with disabilities solely on the basis of their academic potential.
• Invite applicants with a disability to contact the College to discuss their special needs and how these can be met.
• Students with dyslexia are selected and supported on the basis of their relevant merits and abilities and are given equal opportunities, enabling them to perform to their full potential.
• Offer additional provision to ensure that disabled people are not disadvantaged in comparison with others at the application stage.
• Continue to make improvements to the physical and learning environment so that students with disabilities will be able to play a full part in the College.
• Take active steps to consider students' feedback and the development of good practice in the support provisions for people with disabilities.
• Regularly review this policy and plan ways to improve it.
