1. Introduction

This policy outlines the commitment of the London School of Business & Education Ltd. (LSBE), registered in England & Wales (Company Number: 12838732), to ensuring fair access to learning and assessment through reasonable adjustments and special considerations. LSBE is dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment that supports diverse learning needs.

2. Reasonable Adjustments and Special Considerations

2.1 Reasonable Adjustments

Reasonable adjustments are proactive measures taken to enable all students, including those with disabilities or specific needs, to access assessments and training on an equal basis.

LSBE strives to provide adjustments based on:

Evidence provided by the candidate.
The timing of the evidence submission (before, during, or after the course or exam).
The level and nature of support required.
The policies of relevant awarding organisations or regulatory authorities.
Practical limitations, such as resource availability or external approval delays.

Examples of Adjustments:

Large font or high-contrast materials.
Course materials are available in visual and audio formats.
Additional support for exams or assessments, including assistive technologies.

2.2 Special Considerations

Special considerations refer to actions taken to address unforeseen circumstances, such as illness or other temporary conditions, that may impact a student’s ability to perform during assessments.

These are reviewed and provided on a case-by-case basis, ensuring compliance with the awarding organisation’s regulations.

3. Procedure for Requesting Adjustments or Considerations

Students must:

Notify LSBE as early as possible about their need for adjustments or special considerations.
Provide relevant evidence supporting their request.
Cooperate with LSBE to ensure necessary arrangements are in place.

4. Limitations

Adjustments or considerations cannot compromise:

The integrity of assessments.
The standard required for certification.

LSBE will inform students if adjustments cannot be made due to regulatory or practical constraints.

This policy, along with related materials, is available to staff and students on Moodle.
