The Royal Conservatoire of Scotland is fully committed to creating an environment in which all students and staff treat each other fairly and with mutual respect. Our Dignity at Work & Study Statement and Guidance, demonstrates our commitment to providing a work and study environment where all students and staff are free from discrimination and intimidation. This is an essential element in ensuring that all students can achieve their full creative potential during their time at RCS.
We believe that the professional relationship between a student and a member of staff is a central part of the student’s educational development. It is vital, that trust and confidence exist between staff and students, to ensure that students can maximise their learning experience.
We take a zero tolerance approach to relationships between staff and students that go beyond the professional. Such relationships compromise the professional relationship between staff and students and could potentially damage the teaching and learning environment for other students and staff.
