Safeguarding is the term given to the College's responsibilities to promote your wellbeing and make sure that you feel secure and safe.
We've particular responsibilities relating to our learners aged 18 years and under and learners with learning difficulties and disabilities, but we're also responsible for ensuring the wellbeing of all our adult learners. The College has a child protection and vulnerable adults policy and a team of Safeguarding Co-ordinators.
We review whether we're promoting your safety and wellbeing and would like to hear from you if you've any comments or suggestions about this. Our College premises are unique here at Buxton and we share this wonderful building with University of Derby students and members of the public who visit the Dome, the Bistro and the Restaurant. We know this enhances your experience as a student but if you've any general concerns relating to this then do let your tutor or another member of staff know.
If you have a general concern about your own security, safety and wellbeing then please let your tutor or one of your lecturers know.
If you have a particular concern then please contact one of our Safeguarding Co-ordinators and let them know that you have a concern about safeguarding so that you get a prompt response. We've both male and female Safeguarding Co-ordinators.
