Safe to Say - EPNE's reporting and informing initiative
We are an inclusive college that embraces diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging. We are committed to ensuring that our campuses are supportive environments where everyone can feel safe, valued and have the freedom to be themselves.
Safe to Say is our reporting and informing initiative that allows you to report to the college and where you can receive information for a range of concerns. For example, concerns may include bullying and harassment, domestic violence and hate incidents or discrimination.
How to report
There are two ways to report:
- If you select 'Report anonymously', the College will not be able to directly help you or follow up with you on your report. We will be able to track incidents and concerns, identify trends and improve things based on these.
- If you would like someone from the College to contact you in regard to your report, please 'Report with details'.
You can report a number of different types of concerns. For example, you can report an incident of sexual harassment, bullying or hate incidents. If your are unsure which category your concern is most relevant to, or you would like to find out more information about the support available, please see the How to get the right information and support section, which provides information on the definitions of the various types of concerns you can report.
The College will keep the information you provide in the form confidential and only share with those who need to know. Your personal data will be maintained pursuant to data protection legislation, regulation and our policy and procedure. You can learn more about this by reading our Student Privacy Notice and our Staff Privacy Notice.
