You can use your institution’s online forms to raise concerns about your own safety or wellbeing, or about another learner. You can also use this process to share general information.
There are two ways to submit information. The steps are the same, but each option is used for different types of reports.
Options for raising concerns
When raising a concern you can use the following options:
-
Add record - Use this option for serious concerns that require detailed information, such as welfare or mental‑health issues.
-
Add note - Use this option to share quick, simple information, such as details about medication.
