1. | We aim to support you in two key areas: - Assessment Flexibility: If your sporting commitments, like international team selection or major competitions, clash with your academic assessments, your department may be able to offer flexible arrangements such as a deferral of assessment, or an alternative assessment.
- Pacing Your Degree: Your department will support you to explore options if your sporting commitments necessitate a change in mode of study or a break from studies.

2. | Support Measures for You: - Your Departmental Tutor: Your Departmental Tutor is available to provide personalised guidance.
- Flexible Assessments: Depending on the nature of your assessment you may be permitted to; defer your assessment, take exams overseas, extend coursework deadlines, receive support to complete assessments earlier, or explore alternative forms of assessment.
- Timetable Adjustments: We'll try to adjust your seminar groups or practical sessions to fit your training schedule.
- Change of mode of studies: In exceptional circumstances, you may be allowed to switch to part-time.
- Recognising Authorised Absences: Your sport-related absences will be acknowledged as authorised and won't negatively impact your mandatory attendance. Although you must still meet the conditions of your Tier 4 Visa if you have one.
- Break from Studies: You may be able to take an interruption of studies for a full academic year for major sporting events.
