Learning Support

At ATU Sligo, the Learning Support Tutor provides learning support to students who have dyslexia or other specific learning difficulties.

Students who have been diagnosed as having dyslexia or other specific learning difficulties should contact the Learning Support Tutor early in the academic year to develop their Individual Support Plan.

In order to provide accurate supports and accommodations, the Learning Support Service requires medical documentation from the appropriate medical professional.
