Student Support

All members of staff at Itchen College are committed to the highest standards when it comes to protecting and safeguarding the students in our care. The College has a campus where students feel safe and are confident to recognise and report any safeguarding concerns that they may have. Each student has a Tutor that is also a teacher and so trusting relationships can be built that allows students to report any concerns that they may have for themselves or others via their Tutor but are also encouraged to report any concerns straight to the Student Support team or any member of staff also.

All forms of bullying, harassment, abuse, and victimisation are not tolerated at Itchen College. If any instances of these should unfortunately occur, all staff and students are asked to report it and are assured that the incident will be dealt with promptly and effectively.

Prevent is part of the government’s counter-terrorism strategy and aims to prevent people from being radicalised or from supporting terrorism.

At Itchen, we have made the Prevent policy widely known to both students and staff through talks during tutor sessions to posters on display in classrooms, corridors and the Student Centre.

If you have any concerns about someone being connected to terrorism or extremism, please speak to or email Adrian Waters (awaters@itchen.ac.uk). The College’s Prevent Policy is available for parents to download through the college website.
