EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
Buckinghamshire Adult Learning aims to ensure that everyone who wants to learn is able to and that no one is excluded on the grounds of disability, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or culture. We welcome learners with disabilities and will do our best to ensure that appropriate support is available. Our policy can be found on our website (www.adultlearningbcc.ac.uk) or in our centres. We use our enrolment form to monitor the effectiveness of this policy.
DISABLED FACILITIES
Courses are sited on different levels and locations, so it is essential that you discuss your course and accommodation with us before booking if you have a mobility problem, or if you need disabled parking facilities and help on arrival. Most Lecture Rooms are now fitted with integral systems to help learners with hearing difficulties. In addition, we have necklace hearing loops if required.
