Vaccinations
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) is reminding all higher education and university students – freshers and returning students – to make sure they are up to date with their free NHS childhood and adolescent vaccines against meningitis, measles and HPV ahead of starting the new academic year.
Safety in our Buildings
Our risk assessment is continually reviewed to ensure that it is relevant and up to date.
In order to keep our community as safe as possible, we encourage staff and students to stay away from conservatoire buildings when ill.
Staff and students should follow the online absence reporting process.
Tackling Antisocial Behaviour and Noise Nuisance
We expect our students to conduct themselves at all times in a manner that demonstrates respect for the conservatoire, its students and staff, and members of the wider community. Every student is an ambassador for the conservatoire and, accordingly, is expected to behave in a way that enhances its reputation.
Leeds Conservatoire works in partnership with the city’s other higher education institutions, the Leeds City Council Antisocial Behaviour Team and West Yorkshire Police to tackle noise nuisance and antisocial behaviour.
How to Report an Issue with Antisocial Behaviour or Noise Nuisance
If you are experiencing an issue with antisocial behaviour or noise nuisance from domestic properties, you should in the first instance contact the Leeds City Council Antisocial Behaviour Team:
The city’s higher education institutions work closely with the Antisocial Behaviour Team, but to enable prompt action where student residents are involved, we encourage you to also share information with the Neighbourhood Helpline in one of the following ways:
- Complete this online form
- Call 0113 343 1064 (24 hour voicemail service)
- Email the Neighbourhood Helpline
The Neighbourhood Helpline aims to respond to emails and calls within 48 hours, but this may be longer during busy periods and at weekends or holidays. Details of complaints are shared between Helpline partners to help identify students living in the properties concerned.
Allegations of student misconduct in relation to the behaviours set out in the Student Code of Conduct will be considered in accordance with the conservatoire’s Student Conduct and Disciplinary Policy.
Making a complaint against a student
If you experience inappropriate behaviour of any kind from a student, you can report this to the conservatoire by making a formal complaint against the student using the 'Make a complaint' link below. A member of the Complaints team will be in touch to discuss further.
