Dear All,
I’m afraid this issue is raising it’s head again. We have got several students at Roehampton this year who are desperate for support and for whatever reason think they have a specific learning difficulty. But when we either assess them or look into their reports they are not dyslexic, nor do they have a general learning disability, in that there IQ does not fall below 70. Therefore, we feel we cannot support them. However, it often falls in the 80s.
How do other colleagues react to these students in terms of the support you provide?
Kind regards
