Celebrating Disability Awareness Month

This December, Morley is proud to celebrate Disability Awareness Month, reaffirming our commitment to inclusivity and accessibility. As a college built on the principles of equality and diversity, we are dedicated to ensuring that all our students have equal access to education and the opportunities to participate fully in college life. 

Throughout the month, we will highlight the various ways Morley supports students with disabilities, ensuring that everyone can thrive in an inclusive learning environment. We believe that education should be accessible to all, and we are committed to providing the support necessary to achieve this. 

Support for Students with Disabilities 

Our Additional Learning Support (ALS) team is at the heart of this commitment, offering a wide range of services to both staff and students. The support we provide includes: 

  • Personalised support: One-to-one sessions, in-class assistance, and exam access arrangements tailored to each student’s individual needs. 
  • Classroom adjustments: Our dedicated learning support coordinators work closely with tutors across all centres to ensure that teaching methods and classroom environments are adapted to meet the diverse needs of students. 
  • Specialist equipment: We provide access to equipment designed to support students with sensory or physical disabilities, ensuring they have the tools they need to succeed. 

In addition to learning support, we also have a team of Mental Health Coordinators who offer specialised support for students’ mental well-being. Our dedicated coordinators are available at all centres, providing advice and access to essential services to ensure students have the support they need.
