Disability and neurodiversity

We believe that everyone should have equal access to high-quality education at the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity, regardless of disability or neurodiversity.

People sit around a table in discussion. They are seated underneath a large wall sign that says 'Project Space'. They look engaged in conversation and are smiling.

At the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity (IGP), we champion accessibility within both the physical and digital estate. Some of our staff are currently taking Accessibility Champion Training, so we can best advise on making all of our digital resources accessible to those, for example, with colour-blindness or a neurodiversity.

Staff at the IGP are encouraged to take line management of Staff and PGTAs very seriously and are asked to take reasonable adjustment training, in order to fulfil their roles to the best of their ability.

Reasonable adjustments

If you feel that you are eligible for any reasonable adjustments, you should contact us before your studies are formally underway (igp@ucl.ac.uk). This way, we can refer you to the relevant team, who can provide you with assistance in the form of ‘Reasonable Academic Adjustments’. This certification will allow you to have automatic adjustments implemented across all your studies, such as automatic extensions on coursework.

To read more information on reasonable academic adjustments, see the UCL Examples Of Reasonable Adjustments webpage .
