This Procedure is one of two that underpins the Policy on Supporting Health, Fitness and Return to Study. Sometimes welfare issues arise that affect a student’s ability to study or, more generally, be a student at University. The University wants to ensure students have access to support to help them succeed. If there are concerns about the health, wellbeing, behaviour and/or conduct of a student, or their impact on others, the University may need to take action under this Procedure
Undergraduates, Taught postgraduates and Postgraduate Research students
This Procedure is used in cases where there have been 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 more self-directed or routine support interventions.
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 work with students to explore and address these issues with the aim that their University experience can continue with appropriate support.
You should contact your School or Programme Office for specific advice about support to study, fitness to study or return to study.
