Safeguarding and Child Protection

Leeds College of Music is committed to protecting and promoting the welfare and safety of all our students staff and visitors. We aim to provide a welcoming, supportive and safe environment. We have a Safeguarding children and vulnerable adults policy which can be downloaded here.

Staff who work with children, young people or vulnerable adults receive training in Child Protection matters and have undergone CRB checks. If you are a parent, staff member, student, or member of the public, with any concerns about a student at the College, please contact one of the designated staff on this list:
