Westminster Kingsway College is an accessible college, and we are committed to providing adjustments to ensure our disabled students can succeed. We provide an exceptional learning experience for all students, including those with disabilities, mental health difficulties or learning difficulties. We understand that every person’s needs are different and aim to provide support that is most appropriate to the individual.
We also offer a wide range of specialist programmes for learners with learning difficulties or disabilities at our King’s Cross Centre, Alexandra Centre in Camden and Kennet West Centre in Westminster, with programmes leading to accredited qualifications and pathways for independent living, employment and essential skills.
Our Access Support team contact all applicants who have disclosed a disability on their application form for a confidential discussion on any support that may be required. You may prefer to let your tutors and teachers know of your support needs when you are already on course. This results in a referral to the Access Support team who will then work you and with your teachers.
The Access Support team also assist students experiencing mental health difficulties. They are qualified to listen to your concerns and ensure that appropriate adjustments are made in college. They can act on your behalf with teachers and tutors or help you access support from within the college or from external agencies. Any conversation is treated confidentially and sensitively.
