If a learner has a learning difficulty, our tutors are able to adapt the lessons and resources to ensure that these are accessible and usable. The Functional Skills tutors also have additional resources that are specifically tailored for those with dyslexia and dyscalculia. On top of this, on Skills Forward we are able to adjust the colours on the website to ensure it is more readable for learners.
