Reporting concerns

How do I report concerns about another student?

If you feel comfortable to do so, you should first raise the matter with your lecturer or Unit Coordinator. If you feel that the matter has not been adequately addressed, you can bring the matter to the attention of your Head of School. Guild Student Assist can advise you about how to prepare and present your case.

How do I report concerns about a staff member?

You are encouraged to report any concerns you may have about a staff member’s conduct to the Integrity and Standards Unit.

What happens after my concerns are reported to the Integrity and Standards Unit?

  1. Your complaint will be recorded and acknowledged.
  2. Your complaint will be assessed and addressed in the manner most appropriate and in accordance with University policy.
