Dyslexia and dyspraxia

How can we help you?

When you apply, we’ll ask you to do a short test. This is nothing to worry about. It lets us know what kind of support might help you.

We might contact you if we think dyslexia screening will help you. Again, this is nothing to worry about.

Your tutor may also refer you to the dyslexia team.

We can:

  • support you one-to-one or in a small group
  • offer you multi-sensory support if you need it
  • train you to use technology that helps you learn
  • speak to your tutors on your behalf
  • build an individual learning plan (ILP) for you
  • help adapt your materials

How can you get advice and support?

  • tell us about your dyslexia or dyspraxia on your application or enrolment form
  • if you’re on a course, ask your tutor or student services team to refer you to the dyslexia service
  • email us at dyslexiasupport@themanchestercollege.ac.uk
