with entirely at ACT 2 CAM's discretion on a case-by-case basis.
10.4 All students are subject to the Code of Conduct which can be found

You agree to abide by the Code of Conduct.
11. EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES
11.1 We wish to support the development of creative and imaginative
students for employment in industry, none of which is affected by physical
ability. Therefore we support the development of individuals who may
be physically challenged by the demands of certain courses which we
find is best accommodated by early notification of potential difficulties.
We will always try and take reasonable and justifiable steps to accommodate
the difficulties in question, taking into account the student‘s difficulties,
practical capability, impact and potential disruption, cost implications,
and other legal considerations. However the very nature of a course
may make course accessibility difficult for students with particular
types of disability. Where this occurs we will endeavour to discuss
this with you in advance whether you wish to attend certain aspects
of a course where such challenges are reasonably and justifiably
surmountable or agree an alternative solution which is satisfactory
to both parties.
11.2 Failure to declare a condition that might impact
upon your child's ability to progress through the programme may result
in your child's exclusion from the course.
11.3 ACT 2 CAM operates an equal opportunities policy.
All students are assessed as individuals and have equal access to the
learning experience on our courses. For certain courses students are assessed
before acceptance according to their relevant skills, abilities and merits
in order to ensure course appropriateness. Our selection process seeks to
capture the wide diversity of potential creative talent in the industry and
encourages applicants with the appropriate talent and ability whatever
their background, ethnicity, origin, age, gender, class, sexual orientation,
disability or religious or political beliefs.
11.4 We have designed our courses to deliver appropriate
learning across a range of disciplines. Although we will take reasonable
steps to warn students of the content of potentially distressing course
material, we make no apology for such course material as we believe the material
in question is an important part of the learning experience. You agree
to discuss any concerns you may have with us in advance.
