If a health condition, disability or your mental health is affecting your studies, there’s support available. An Individual Learning Plan (ILP) can put adjustments in place to make studying more manageable.
What is an ILP?
An Individual Learning Plan (ILP) is a personalised support plan.
If your condition meets the criteria under the Equality Act 2010, the University has to make reasonable adjustments to reduce barriers to your learning.
How do I get an ILP?
To get started:
- complete the initial support form
- select Disability Support
- choose ‘Setting up an ILP’.
An advisor will review your request and set up your ILP on the Student Record System (SRS). You can also find more information on the Wellbeing Services website.
I already have an ILP. Can I change it?
Yes and it’s worth doing if your situation has changed.
- complete the initial support form
- select ‘Updating or discussing an existing ILP’.
What support can an ILP include?
This depends on what you need, but could include:
- extra time or extensions
- specialist equipment
- more contact with tutors
- early access to teaching materials.
Can anyone help me with it?
If you’re not sure whether an ILP is right for you, our advice team can talk it through. We can help you understand your options, explain how the process works and help you figure out what to do next.
