What is a Student Inclusion Officer?

Student Inclusion Officers (SIOs), formerly known as Disability Liaison Officers, are members of University staff based in your school who are the main school-based contact for queries related to disability, student wellbeing, and inclusion. The SIOs work closely with colleagues in the central University Student Support Services to ensure that disabled students/students facing barriers to education needs are understood and met, and will signpost you for specialist support and advice depending on your circumstances.

Your SIO is a good first point of contact if you have a question about how things work in your school, or how to access additional support. Contact them if you have a question or concern, particularly if it's related to your school's support or processes.

With your permission, we'll send the SIOs in your school(s) information about your disability, and make recommendations around how your school can best support you.
