Having worked with the University we have helped to make an amendment to the information available to students regarding children on campus!
Following feedback from students, we realised that some concerns existed regarding the clarity of the Children on Campus policy.
Working with the university, we took snippets of the policy and added them to the correct place on the University of Staffordshire Current Student site. This change will provide students with potentially viral information to assist them in their time at Staffs!
You can check out the full page here. However, here is the part specifically relating to Children on Campus:
Children on campus - Children are welcome on campus in several of our public spaces for example, Sir Stanley Matthews Sports Centre, catering areas, and the children areas in the Science Centre.
However, there are places that children are not allowed such as workshops, laboratories, studios, kitchens, or other hazardous areas, this is in line with University Health, Safety and Wellbeing policies. To bring a child into one of these types of areas for a specific purpose, you will require approval with adequate notice given to your Executive Dean/ Executive Director prior to bringing a child into one of those spaces, and a Risk Assessment will need to be completed. If you are unsure as to who to contact, please get in touch with your course team.
Should you ever require assistance with bringing a child onto campus please talk with your academic team and they will be able to help!
