Learning Resources Safeguarding

Learning Resource Centre (LRC)

The College offers extensive study and learning facilities spread over the five main campuses. Learning resources such as books and journals, are combined with a wide range of electronic multimedia learning materials and these are linked to the computer networks. The stock of resources is updated in line with curriculum developments. See www.src.ac.uk/student-life/facilities/ learning-resource-centres for opening times.

Photocopying Facilities

Photocopying facilities are located across the College’s campuses. Students can use their network user ID and password to log on and copies are charged against the students print credits. Print credits can be renewed through the LRCs on each campus – ask LRC staff for further information.

Student Cards

As a student, you will be issued with a free student card which confirms your current status as a member of the College and enables you to gain entrance to the LRCs and other facilities on any SRC campus. College policy is ‘No Card, No Entry’ to the Learning Resource Centres. Please note that you must have a student card to sit examinations or vote in the Students’ Union elections.

Replacement cards can be obtained from your campus LRC. Please note, there is a charge for replacing lost cards. £2.50 for a replacement card and £2.50 for a replacement lanyard with a cardholder. For security reasons, students should wear their student card at all times when on campus. To contact the LRC, please telephone:

What is Safeguarding?

Safeguarding is about helping students to keep themselves safe and to prevent harm happening to them. Safeguarding is also about responding to concerns about alleged and suspected harm and putting in place plans to help and protect those who cannot protect themselves. Everyone has the right to live their lives free from violence and abuse.

If you are worried about something that is happening to you or to someone you know, please talk to us. If we are concerned about your safety, we may need to share this information with others, but we will always tell you first. At Southern Regional College, all members of staff are trained in the protection of children, young people, adults at risk and adults in need of protection and safe from harm to ensure that they are fully aware of their responsibilities in this area. The Student Safeguarding Officers have undergone additional training for these roles.
