Reasonable adjustments

We recognise that some students require extra preparation and consideration for their examinations in order to demonstrate their true academic potential. If you have a disability, health or wellbeing concern that you think could affect your performance in examinations and assessments, Student Wellbeing and Inclusivity (SWAI) can assess whether a reasonable adjustment should be put in place. 

Please be aware that changes to your exam arrangements (ie adjustments) can be only processed up to a certain point prior to the exam, to allow time for them to be implemented. 

You are encouraged to check your current examination support via your self-service portal. If this is not what you are expecting, please contact studentinclusion@lboro.ac.uk immediately.  

Wellbeing support

There is information available online on how to manage stress and anxiety, as well as advice on how to improve your revision and exam skills.

The LUWellbeing App can also provide wellbeing support and is completely free to download. It follows a holistic approach using proven methods to positively influence your wellbeing, incorporating mindfulness and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) amongst many other techniques. It is available to download on Google Play and the App Store.
