Dyslexia: Perceived barriers and facilitators to success at postgraduate study

This project aims to :

• To establish the percentages of students studying at UG and PG levels in FASS who identify as having dyslexia / SpLD, and whether or not these differ to national statistics. 

• To identify any differences in pass rates/module grades between PG students with dyslexia / SpLD and students without a disclosed disability in FASS. 

• To identify the perceived barriers and facilitators to PG study for students with dyslexia / SpLD in order to inform future development and modifications of postgraduate qualifications and modules in FASS, but in particular, in Psychology & Counselling due to the new development in PG qualifications.
