Consultation

Consultation on a new approach to regulating harassment and sexual misconduct in English higher education

The Office for Students (OfS) is proposing a new approach to the regulation of harassment and sexual misconduct affecting students in registered higher education providers. This consultation sets out the background to our proposals, the reasons we are proposing to make changes and what we expect those changes to achieve.

This consultation is now closed. The deadline for responses was 4 May 2023. We aim to publish a summary of responses and our decisions later in 2023.
