How providers can make reasonable adjustments, get funding and offer flexibilities for learners with learning difficulties and disabilities.

The support for learners document sets out how providers:

• should assess and identify the needs of learners with learning difficulties or disabilities
• should support these learners
• can claim learning support funding, to help them make reasonable adjustments to support these learners

The English and maths flexibilities document has information about how providers can offer apprentices the option to study English and maths at a lower level, if appropriate.
