This table allows you to search for, and then displays, a list of staff within a selected department and shows you how many staff members have unread Student Support documents. If a student with dyslexia/dyspraxia is on a course owned by a department which is participating in the pilot scheme to provide the standard reasonable adjustments for their students with dyslexia/dyspraxia, then there is no requirement to read those documents for that student, and so they are not counted as 'Unread'. Students with dyslexia/dyspraxia, falling within this pilot scheme, are displayed with a 'minus' sign and a green background. If a student has support needs for both dyslexia/dyspraxia and other support needs (sensory or physical impairments, and/or mental health problems), then there is still a requirement to read documents relating to the latter.

What are the icons in the table header for?

This table allows you to search for, and then displays, a list of staff within a selected department and shows you how many staff members have unread Student Support documents.

If a student with dyslexia/dyspraxia is on a course owned by a department which is participating in the pilot scheme to provide the standard reasonable adjustments for their students with dyslexia/dyspraxia, then there is no requirement to read those documents for that student, and so they are not counted as 'Unread'. Students with dyslexia/dyspraxia, falling within this pilot scheme, are displayed with a 'minus' sign and a green background. If a student has support needs for both dyslexia/dyspraxia and other support needs (sensory or physical impairments, and/or mental health problems), then there is still a requirement to read documents relating to the latter. The student in this case will be displayed with a 'plus' sign and a saffron background.
