Policy on Supporting Health, Fitness and Return to Study

The University is committed to supporting students and recognises the impact that a student’s health, wellbeing, behaviour and conduct can have on their academic progression and wider university experience. Issues with any of these may affect a student’s fitness to study. 

This Policy must be used when concerns about a student’s academic progress, behaviour, conduct and/or ability to function appropriately at the University are thought to be the result of mental and/or physical ill health.

This Policy must be used by staff when a student’s health, wellbeing, behaviour and/or conduct is significantly impacting on their ability to progress academically and/or function at the University, and/or on other students/staff.
