Overview
Report + Support will be used as a reporting mechanism for students and staff to self and proxy report harassment and misconduct. The reports can come in self-service with named individuals or as anonymous submissions
The purpose of reporting is so that the individual can obtain support which will come in two forms, via automated resources based on responses and support via university support services, most notably Wellbeing. Decisions will be made from an initial assessment of the report submission by a professional support staff member. For reports from Sunderland students this will be managed within Wellbeing (Student Journey) For Sunderland Staff, this will be managed by Human Resources. For London Students, this will be managed by Student Administration and Systems. For London Staff, this will be managed by London Human Resources. If required decisions will be made from case conferences where relevant colleagues will discuss intervention actions and next steps for support that may also include contributions from other departments internal to the university.
This supports the Universities ‘Preventing and Responding to Harassment and Sexual Misconduct Action Plan’ overseen by the Safeguarding and Prevent Group and ultimately derived and driven from an Office for Students regulation regarding harassment and sexual misconduct in higher education.
