Demystifying Report + Support

The University’s Report + Support tool is a designated space for staff and students to report misconduct, access resources and be signposted to support.

In this session, our Conduct and Respect team will cover a range of topics to help break down and understand this tool, including how to make a report, what happens with anonymous reports and what actions can be taken from them.
