Student Policies and Regulations

Whistleblowing Policy

This policy provides guidance to staff and students wishing to raise their reasonable suspicions about irregularities in the running of the University or of the activities of colleagues within the University.

Further information is given about situations where injustices or discrimination affect an individual personally, or where there is suspected fraud or financial irregularities.

The policy is in line with the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 and explains what steps can be taken if there are any concerns.

Note: The guidance does not replace the University’s existing policies and procedures in relation to grievances, harassment, disciplinary matters or student complaints.
