This Procedure is one of three that underpins the Policy on Supporting Health, Fitness and Return to Study. The University has a duty of care to its staff and students and must comply with health and safety legislation. If there are significant concerns about the health, wellbeing, behaviour and/or conduct of a student, or their impact on others, the University is obliged to take action. If these concerns have not been resolved by the Procedure on Support to Study, they may be considered under this Procedure.
Undergraduates, Taught postgraduates
This Procedure is used in cases where there have been significant concerns about the health, wellbeing, behaviour and/or conduct of a student, or their impact on others, and these concerns have not been resolved by the Procedure on Support to Study.
A student’s health, wellbeing, behaviour and conduct can have an impact on their academic progression and wider university experience. Issues with any of these may affect a student’s fitness to study. This Procedure aims to help resolve these issues.
You should contact your School or Programme Office for specific advice about support to study, fitness to study or return to study.
