Solent University student residences fully comply with the standards for student accommodation, the Universities UK/Guild HE Code of Practice for the Management of Student Housing.
This code covers, among other matters, health and safety, maintenance and repair, and relationships between the University and student tenants. It outlines best practice and provides benchmarks for the management and quality of student housing in the sector.
The resident comment form is for students living in residences who have issues or comments. The aim of the form is to help students focus on their particular issues or comments and to assist the Residence Team to investigate the problems and hopefully resolve them.
The following are examples of issues students may have:
The form should not be used to report faults. You should use the online system to report a fault or defect.
To complete a resident comment form please follow this link. Ideally, complaints will be resolved at this stage with no need to go through the formal student complaints process. The forms and procedure are primarily for use in the accommodation service, but if necessary, they could be used as the first stage of a formal complaint process.
Residents, individually or collectively, may be subject to disciplinary measures if they breach the University's published disciplinary regulations and are charged with acts of misconduct or gross misconduct. The disciplinary regulations can be found within the terms of residency.
In addition, the University and its officers reserve the right to issue verbal cautions, written cautions and/or final written cautions to students who are in breach of the terms of residency.
The following are examples of conduct, which may be construed as misconduct or gross misconduct. The list is intended to be neither prescriptive nor all-encompassing.
