The professional association of teachers of students with specific learning difficulties

Updated 2011/2012 DSA guidance chapter


Notice dated March 2011

The 2011/2012 DSA guidance chapter (page 29, section 109) has been updated to reflect changes agreed by the Disabled Student Stakeholder Group regarding changing the terminology 'study skills tuition' to 'specialist 1:1 support' and updating the definition of what this support involves.

Information about the change was communicated in the latest Disabled Student Service bulletin but we ask you to ensure cascading this within your organisations.

The guidance chapter can be accessed via the following link:
