Safeguarding, Mental Health and PREVENT

We take the safeguarding of our students very seriously and have a designated Safeguarding Team who can be contacted with any concerns.

At Lincoln College we take the Safeguarding of our students and visitors seriously. 

We have a variety of support available, please see below for more information on definitions, type of support and relevant contact information.

Safeguarding is about promoting the welfare of children and adults at risk, protecting them from harm.

This means:

  • Protecting children from abuse and maltreatment
  • Preventing harm to children's health and development
  • Ensuring children grow with provision of safe and effective care
  • Taking action to enable all children and young people have the best outcomes

Child protection is part of the safeguarding process. It focuses on protecting individual children identified as suffering or likely to suffer significant harm. The principals are the same with adults at risk. Adults at risk are individuals who need care or support and because of this unable to protect themselves from either the risk of, or the experience of, abuse or neglect.

 

Contacting Safeguarding

The Safeguarding Team are available through a Single Point of Contact (SPoC) which is monitored Mon to Fri from 08.30am to 4.00pm. The SPoC is contactable on: 07580 975854 or you can e-mail safeguarding@lincolncollege.ac.uk with concerns or enquiries at any time although this is only monitored during the hours as shown above.

Alternatively, you can approach any member of staff to assist you. Staff are clearly identifiable as wearing a blue lanyard that says Lincoln College STAFF. They can assist you in the first instance or direct you to the best place for support.

You can also visit any of the reception areas at Lincoln or Newark college’ and ask to speak to someone from Student Services.

If you are attending College outside of these core hours, e.g. for an evening class, and have a concern, please raise this with your tutor onsite. Alternatively, you can also raise a concern with the Deans Duty Manager at Deans Reception for our Lincoln Campus and for Newark Campus please call our onsite security officer on the following number 07580 738 152.

Sexual violence and sexual harassment are not acceptable, will never be tolerated and is not an inevitable part of growing up. Sexual violence relates to sexual offences such as rape, assault by penetration or sexual assault. Sexual harassment relates to ‘unwanted conduct of a sexual nature’ that can occur online and offline.

Sexual harassment is likely to:

  • violate a person’s dignity,
  • and/or make them feel intimidated, degraded or humiliated
  • and/or create a hostile, offensive or sexualised environment.

Dismissing or tolerating sexual harassment as “just having a laugh”, “banter” or “boys being boys” is not acceptable. Grabbing bottoms, breasts and genitalia, flicking bras and lifting up skirts, sexual remarks about clothes and appearance and sexualised names are all examples of sexual harassment.

Behaviour of this type will not be tolerated at Lincoln College Group and staff and students are encouraged to report their concerns to any member of staff or through the College safeguarding Single Point of Contact on the details shown below. 

Mental health issues can impact all of us at some point in our lives and students at Lincoln College Group are no different.

Lincoln College Group services:

  • Safeguarding
  • Needs assessment and Support Team
  • Counsellors
  • Mental Health First Aiders

Support can be assessed by contacting the Single Point of Contact (SPoC) - safeguarding@lincolncollege.ac.uk or 07580 975854 or by dropping in at the YourSpace or any of the main receptions at Lincoln and Newark College where staff can offer advice ad support or make a referral on your behalf. 

Lincoln College has a zero tolerance towards any form of Bullying, Harassment or Hate Crime.

Bullying, harassment and hate crimes, by their nature are corrosive, tormenting and distressing and can have a significant physical and emotional impact on groups and individuals.  They can take many forms from name calling or offensive language/gestures to direct physical assault. Bullying, harassment or hate crimes can also occur in an online environment and include both Cyberbullying and Cyberstalking, which entail the malicious use of technology to harass, threaten, maliciously pressure or embarrass an individual online. 

If you are concerned that you or someone else is suffering any form of bullying or harassment, be it physical or online, then please make contact with the Safeguarding Team for advice or talk with your course tutor.

The Prevent Duty is about safeguarding our students to keep them both safe and within the law. Education settings have a duty to have regard to the need to prevent people from being drawn into terrorism. The Prevent Duty is not about preventing students from having political and religious views but about supporting them to act in non-extremist ways. 

If you have concerns with regard to any of our students please contact our Safeguarding Team at safeguarding@lincolncollege.ac.uk

If you’ve seen or heard something that could suggest a terrorist threat to the UK and the college is closed, report it at The Metropolitan Police website www.met.police.uk using their quick and confidential online tool under Tell Us About. They monitor this service 24 hours a day.

The Met hosts this reporting service on behalf of all UK police forces. Below is the official Counter Terrorism Policing Teams advice as to what to do in the unlikely event of being caught up in a situation where you are fearful for your safety. It only takes 5 minutes to watch but may just save your life. We encourage all of our staff and students to watch. Click here to view it.

You can also find out what to do in a weapons or firearms situation while on campus according to the Counter Terrorism Policing Team.
