Keeping our community safe from harassment and sexual misconduct

At Westminster, the wellbeing of our community is one of our underpinning priorities. As part of this commitment, and in partnership with the Office for Students on their work to prevent and address all forms of harassment and sexual misconduct, we have brought together all relevant information and policies in this area into a single document: Combatting Harassment and Sexual Misconduct.  

This document includes details of our Report + Support Platform – where students can report any incidents of bullying, harassment, discrimination, hate crime or sexual misconduct – as well as our policies and procedures relating to harassment and sexual misconduct.  

Please do read through this document and ensure you are familiar not only with our Student Code of Conduct and policies, but also with the range of support available to students at the University.  

We have also made available an e-learning module on Blackboard to help you understand how we can keep the whole University community safe and how you can access support if needed.

Please complete the module by Friday 28 November 2025.
