College of Sanctuary
As a College of Sanctuary, we are proud to offer a welcoming, inclusive and safe environment for all students, particularly those seeking sanctuary, including refugees and asylum seekers.
Our support is holistic and student-centered, recognising the unique challenges faced by sanctuary-seeking students. We provide financial and academic support, access to wellbeing and counselling services and dedicated staff who work closely with students to ensure they feel safe, valued and empowered.
Through awareness-raising events, inclusive curriculum practices, and strong partnerships with local community organisations, we actively promote understanding, compassion and opportunity.
