Assessment reasonable adjustments research project
We’re inviting academic and professional services staff at the University of Portsmouth to take part in a research study exploring how reasonable adjustments for disabled students are understood and applied during assessments.
Taking part involves a one-hour interview (in person or online) at a time that suits you. Your insights will help shape practical recommendations to support more inclusive, consistent, and legally compliant assessment practices.
If you're interested in volunteering or would like to know more, please contact Dr Charles Barker (chief investigator Charles.barker@port.ac.uk), who will provide you with further information about the project.
Thank you for considering contributing to this work.
