Hi I was wondering whether anyone thinks it is possible to get a deferral on a piece of coursework because someone I know who has dyslexia needs extra time to do her coursework and the people who support her have said that she can have one, but the university hasn't allowed it because they think that by letting dyslexic people have deferrals on their coursework, everyone will start getting deferrals and this would mess up dead lines etc. She finds it very difficult to make her sentences make sense and check her work thoroughly to make sure it is up to a reasonable standard.
Does anyone have any ideas of how she can get her rights and the extra time that she needs? Do you think making a complaint would help her and the rest of the dyslexic people in the college?
Please give your suggestions.
Jess
