Purpose |
The University of Sheffield is committed to promoting the highest standards of behaviour to maintain a working, learning and social environment where everyone is treated fairly and with respect. Ours is a motivated and diverse University community, where staff and students have a right to expect high standards from each other and to work together to maximise the benefits of difference. |

Grounds |
If you believe you are being subjected to harassment or bullying in any form, you do not have to feel it is your fault and you do not have to tolerate it. Examples might include the sending of inappropriate messages via texts or social media or where one student experiences difficulties with what they feel is inappropriate behaviour by another student, in private accommodation. Any student who suffers from harassment or bullying from any individual or group throughout their student experience will have the support of the University in seeking to ensure that the harassment or bullying ceases. There are various ways in which an individual can deal with harassment, ranging from asking the person to stop to taking up a formal complaint. |
