SAFE Policies and Procedures
Student wellbeing is a priority at Ormond College, and while the entire College contributes to ensuring the community is safe, healthy, and as happy as possible, the Student Success Team has wellbeing at its core. Student Success facilitates holistic wellbeing by having psychologists on hand for one-on-one support, a careers consultant to help guide you to internships and employment opportunities, physical health programs such as the Ormond gym and exercise classes, programs to help you develop your personal and employability skills and work closely with the academic staff at the College to ensure you get the most out of your degree.
Ormond College is committed to the safety of every member of our community and has zero tolerance for behaviours such as sexual harm, bullying, discrimination and victimisation.
In addition to the professional staff, Ormond has a range of trained and enthusiastic student leaders to help you on your journey through College. These leaders are a great first stop for any concerns or questions about College life.

Anonymous reports can also be submitted via the online system; however, the College will rarely be able to take action in the case of an anonymous report.
