Subject: Policies on Support for pregnant students/students with young children

Hi everyone,

We’re looking to tidy up some of our procedures for looking after students who are pregnant or students who have very young children (for example, students still breastfeeding…). In the past we have always handled cases on an individual basis, but we’re looking to draw together a more coherent guide for good practice.

Does anyone have any policies/good practice guides in this area that they would be willing to share?

I’m happy to circulate documents (anonymised) if helpful.

Please reply off list.

Many thanks,

Annie
