Keeping You Safe

Keeping You Safe at 91传媒

There can be no issue of greater importance to 91传媒 – or to parents, carers and guardians – than the safety and wellbeing of our students.

Safeguarding at 91传媒 is not just a policy – it is part of who we are. It鈥檚 woven into our daily routines, our culture, and how we treat one another. We expect everyone – students, staff and visitors – to uphold our College ethos of being READY. RESPECTFUL. SAFE. These three words are more than just a motto – they guide how we behave in corridors, classrooms and all College spaces, including online.

We are proud of the fact that every member of our community has a role to play in keeping the College safe. Whether you鈥檙e a young person or an adult learner, we want you to feel secure, supported and empowered to speak up if something鈥檚 wrong 鈥 whether it鈥檚 happening to you or someone else.

We are committed to:

  • Raising awareness of child and adult protection issues
  • Ensuring staff and students know what to do if something doesn鈥檛 feel right
  • Acting quickly and appropriately when concerns are raised
  • Promoting a culture of mutual respect, inclusion and care

Everyone at 91传媒 must wear their Security ID Pass at all times 鈥 this helps us maintain a safe and secure learning environment.

You have a right to feel safe wherever you learn 鈥 in the classroom, in the corridor, out on placement, or online. If something is worrying you 鈥 whether that鈥檚 bullying, harassment, being made to feel uncomfortable, or something happening outside of College 鈥 please speak to your tutor, someone in the Learning Centre reception, or contact the Safeguarding Team directly. Their contact details are shown below.

We work in a trauma-informed way and are always open to the possibility that 鈥渋t could happen here.鈥听That means we take all concerns seriously and will always listen without judgement.
