Supply of Diagnostic Assessment Reports of Specific Learning Diffiuclties (SpLD) for the University of Derby and University of Derby Pre-entry Students

Descriptions

UoD is inviting tenders for the supply and delivery of post 16 diagnostic assessments and reports for SpLD including Dyslexia, Dyspraxia/Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorder and Dyscalculia. This service is for pre-entry and current students who have been pre-screened by the University, show possible indications of an SpLD and where access to the service is likely to have a positive impact on their academic outcomes. Specialist assessors (suitably qualified practitioner psychologists and specialist teachers) are used to determine the presence of an SpLD following screening. The Diagnostic Assessment Report (DAR) can be used by students as proof of eligibility for Disabled Students Allowance (DSA) applications or for access to work/employer support for students on apprenticeship programmes.
