Student Support

 

Your experiences and perspectives are crucial in shaping the Student Support services we provide. We strive to be student-centred, inclusive and accessible and are committed to incorporating these values into everything we do.  

Your feedback - whether or not you’ve accessed our services - helps us to:

  • Understand the diverse backgrounds and needs of students.
  • Identify and address any barriers to accessing our services.

Our aims

  1. Putting the student voice at the heart of what we do: We’ll work with you to improve our services and your experiences of accessing them.
  2. Communication and reach: We want you to feel comfortable seeking support and know where to find it when you need it.
  3. Decisions driven by data: We'll act on information about how our services are used and by whom.  
  4. Partnerships: We’ll create inclusive and accessible opportunities for you to collaborate with central Student Support staff.

You said, we did (or didn't)

We'll close the feedback loop by:

  • Showing clear connections between your feedback and the actions we take in response.
  • Being transparent about when and why change hasn’t been possible.

Why you should get involved

  • Contributing to decisions made about your mental health and wellbeing can boost confidence, agency and empowerment.
  • You can gain skills and experience to support your development during and after University.
  • You'll have access to training opportunities and, when applicable, receive compensation for your contributions.
