Learning Support

The Learning Support team will meet with individual students and their families and carers (as appropriate) to identify the best support to meet their needs.

This may take the form of additional one to one support; the provision of technology and software; and/or additional support for exams or completing assignments. The team will find solutions that are fully tailored to meeting the student’s individual needs.

What can SERC Offer?

How can SERC help me with my studies?

Clare is on the autistic spectrum. A member of the learning support team met with her and her mum before she finished school to plan her support arrangements so that she did not feel anxious about her transition to SERC. Claire’s teachers were made aware of how best to help her and she was provided with one to one support from a specialist support worker. It did not take long for her motivation and confidence to grow.

Are SERC staff trained?

Addressing Special Educational Need

SERC complies fully with the requirements of the Special Educational Needs and Disability Order (2005) and works to ensure that the College’s services are accessible to all. In doing so the College carries out its SENDO responsibilities in a way that ensures that the dignity and respect of the student is central to process so that barriers to learning are effectively identified and minimised.
