The College is committed to:
• Providing a safe learning environment for all students with equal protection from all types of harm and abuse.
• Identifying children, young people and vulnerable adults who are suffering, or likely to suffer, significant harm, and taking appropriate action to see that such children, young people and vulnerable adults are kept safe, both at home and at the College.
• Working in partnership with students, staff and other institutions to promote a safe learning environment.
If you have any concerns, please ask at Reception for support. You can also contact the safeguarding team at [email protected] or call 0121 667 5101 and ask for a Safeguarding Officer.
The Students Union is an organisation run by students for students. It offers support and advice, provides entertainment, organises activities, charity events and a wide variety of trips in the UK and abroad. All students at Sandwell College are automatically members of the Students Union.
