The School does not tolerate any form of harassment or victimisation and expects all members of our community and its visitors to treat each other with respect, courtesy and consideration, adhering to the University of Oxford’s policy on Bullying and Harassment.
We each have a responsibility to create a working environment where everyone feels equally valued and bystander intervention is a vital component in tackling bullying and harassment.
Who to speak to
If you're experiencing bullying or harassment, or have witnessed an incident where you think they have taken place, please speak to someone early so we can resolve the problem.
One option available to you is to speak to Robyn Mason who is the School Welfare Contact. Robyn is the point of contact in the School for any student welfare concerns and she will be able to signpost students to the most appropriate support. To get in touch please send Robyn an email.
Another option available to you is to speak confidentially to one of the Department’s Harassment Advisors:
Robyn Mason
Joe Graystone
Rick Schulting
If you are a member of staff, you may want to discuss the matter with your Head of Department, departmental administrator, immediate supervisor, or trade union representative.
You have the option to speak to someone outside of the Department if you prefer. See the website pages for the Harassment Advisor Network or email them at
harassment.line@admin.ox.ac.uk for further details.
