Your experiences matter

It can feel isolating to be at uni and to face problems.

For example, you can’t get your head around the process to make a complaint, or perhaps you are experiencing racism or discrimination.

This is where the Code for learner wellbeing and safety comes in.

The Code aims to ensure we feel a sense of belonging in classrooms and beyond, including in student accommodation. It supports students’ wellbeing, voice and identity.

It also requires your uni to have culturally responsive support services to ensure your mental

and physical wellbeing are well looked after.

The Code is all about improving your tertiary education experience and creating opportunities to talk to your uni if you face problems or have ideas about how to make things better. Also be encouraged to talk to local or national student associations who will do their best to represent you and amplify your feedback about what you’re experiencing: the great, the good, the bad and the ugly. And if you are still facing issues, you can talk to NZQA.
