The University of Sheffield is fully committed to sustaining a positive and mutually supportive working environment free from harassment, discrimination, bullying and victimisation where students can work collaboratively and productively together, and where everyone is equally valued and respected.

If you think you have experienced bullying or harassment, Report + Support is a route which you can use to raise concerns and access support.  You will be offered support from a member of staff in the University's Safeguarding and We;fare Team who can:

  • offer support and guidance
  • discuss what resolution you are seeking
  • outline your options and explain procedures
  • assist with escalating incidents to University's Resolution Service: who will review your report and advise on the best resolution options available to you - these can include informal resolutions or a formal investigation as part of the Student Disclipine Regulations.
  • assist with reporting incidents to the police where needed

Examples of how the University can help to resolve situations of bullying or harassment can be found here.
