Learning Support.

We have a dedicated team to offer extra learning support to anyone who needs it including those with learning difficulties, physical and sensory disabilities and those with a specific learning difficulty. You can let us know if you need extra support when you apply for a course by filling in the relevant part of the application form.

Extra support can include:

  • Personalised support in and out of class
  • Assistance through the use of a range of specialist equipment
  • Advice and assistance with access, resources and materials
  • Support with personal care
  • Support at meal and break times

Gateshead Council’s Local Offer page can be viewed by clicking here.  It provides information for children and young people with special educational needs and their parents or carers.
