Annex B

ALLEGATIONS OF MISCONDUCT WHILST ON PLACEMENT


i. If you are on placement you will be subject to the Student Code of Conduct and associated procedures of the placement provider, including the provider's absolute authority to dismiss. Dismissal from a placement for misconduct constitutes either misconduct or serious misconduct under the Student Code of Conduct, because it damages, or has the potential to damage, the University's relationship or reputation with an external organisation.

ii. Where dismissal has resulted from a finding of fact made by the placement provider, this will not need to be reopened by the University. The issue for us to consider will be the seriousness of the offence. Where the placement provider has not gone through a formal disciplinary process, we may need to invoke our own disciplinary procedures.

ALLEGATIONS OF MISCONDUCT TAKING PLACE IN UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES

i. If you engage in disruptive and/or anti-social behaviour in University Libraries which contravenes the Library Code of Conduct, initial action can be taken by the Director of Library and Campus Services.

ii. This includes issuing advisory notices regarding your behaviour and/or the immediate suspension from accessing campus Libraries for a specified period of time of up to 2 weeks.

iii. Repeated behaviour will be reported to the Student Policy and Compliance Team for action under the formal disciplinary procedures.
