Internal support

Students can access support for harassment and/or sexual misconduct in a variety of different ways, depending on what they feel most comfortable with: 

Online

If students are not sure who to speak with in the first instance, or if they feel anxious about having a face-to-face conversation, they can type their query into our Digital Assistant, Nova. Alternatively, they can submit a report on our ‘Report an Incident and Get Support’ tool, available via MyGlos.  

If students would like to find out more about online support, there is dedicated information about harassment and sexual misconduct on MyGlos. 

In person/by telephone

Students are welcome to drop in to one of our Student Centres, where colleagues will be able to provide some initial assistance, and then link the student in with appropriate support. Students may also choose to speak directly with other members of staff: Wellbeing Coordinators; Residential Support Advisers, Dignity Advisers, Personal Tutors. 

We support students: 

• Regardless of whether the incident has happened on or off campus 
• Whether they wish to take informal or formal action, or no action at all 
• To report to the Police if they wish 
• To link in with other expert assistance (such as the local Sexual Assault Referral Centre) 
• With their studies: Support is provided to ensure the continued academic engagement of any student involved in an investigation, or similar process, where a student wishes to continue studying.  Academic and/or assessment arrangements may be changed as appropriate during such a process in line with our Extenuating Circumstances policy.
