Support For Learners

Support for your Success

At South Thames College we are committed to removing as many barriers to access and learning as possible.  Our aim is to provide you with the right support to produce results that are a true reflection of your abilities. 

We provide support to more than 1,000 students, many of whom have a disability or learning difficulty.  In order for us to plan to meet your support requirements, we encourage students to disclose this information to us as early as possible.
