SAFEGUARDING

The safety of our students at Hartlepool College of Further Education is paramount to us and we are committed to the safeguarding and welfare of all students. In order to support all learners, we have a dedicated Safeguarding Team of trained professionals who can offer advice and guidance.

Safeguarding Team (Student Success Coaches):-

Please speak to a Student Success Coach if you have any worry or concern whether that be about yourself or another student.  No matter how big or small you concern is, the welfare and safeguarding team can always help.
