Access arrangements are made available for the pupils who qualify. The department liaises closely with subject teachers to identify students who may require reasonable adjustments. Pupils are identified by subject specialist teachers and parents with concerns. Identified pupils are assessed in the Third Form in preparation for GCSE.
The Learning Support Department is very much part of the whole school and wider curriculum as teaching and learning are at the heart of a Denstone College education.
The College operates a Learning Support Policy which makes for interesting reading.
If you feel that your son or daughter would benefit from Learning Support, we encourage you to make contact and discuss their needs. It is our pleasure to support Denstonians in achieving their highest potential. A telephone call or email to me is all that is needed to get the ball rolling. I hope to hear from you in due course if you think I can be of help.
