Parents and Supporters
We understand that sometimes you may want to contact your student but be unable to do so.
We recognise our students as independent adults. Therefore, we need their consent to talk to anyone outside the University about them, including parents and guardians.
What we can tell you
We cannot confirm to a third party including parents or guardians if someone is a student at the University, or their whereabouts.
But should you wish to tell us about your concerns, we will follow up on issues raised.
We require all students to provide the details of an emergency contact when they register for their programme of study. This may be a parent, guardian, or other responsible individual. We will use emergency contact details in very serious situations when it’s in the student’s vital interests that we do so.
Read our information sharing policy.
