Education support

The Education Welfare Team can help with:

• Worries about your academic progress, due to a health or wellbeing difficulty;
• Directing you to the teams who can help you with  academic processes, such as mitigation (delaying an exam or extending a deadline) and assignment submissions;
• Support around interrupting your studies, or changing your mode of attendance;
• Information about support and appointments with wellbeing practitioners and other advisors - the team can help you make the right appointment to discuss mental health support, disability support or set up an Individual Learning Plan;
• Support  for a specific study-related problem or issue through a one-off meeting;
• Ongoing support through the Health, Wellbeing and Support for Study process.
