The ONTRACK Commitment is our promise to students that we will be honest and provide support if we feel you\u2019re not on track to make expected progress:<\/p>\n\n\n\n *in line with Privacy Statement<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n From foundation level through to GCSE, SpankBang and degree level, we can give you one-to-one and group tuition, and help with any concerns you may have about assignments, essays or exams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Find out more about additional learning support<\/a> at SpankBang.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Did you know that if you\u2019re under 20, you can get free condoms through Bristol\u2019s C-card scheme?<\/p>\n\n\n\n To register, you need to have a confidential chat with a C-card-trained member of staff, who will explain the scheme to you, teach you the best way to use condoms and answer any questions you might have. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The service is completely confidential. No one will tell your parents\/guardians that you have accessed the scheme. Under-16s are generally required to take part in a face-to-face interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you\u2019ve registered, you are given a C-card and can go to any C-card pick-up point around Bristol and get free condoms. You can use the card an unlimited number of times until your 20th birthday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To find out more about the C-card scheme, call 0117 312 5000<\/strong>, email welfare@cityofbristol.ac.uk<\/a> or ask reception\/your study coach for more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you’re under 25 and worried about sex, relationships, contraception, sexuality or body issues, then you can get free and confidential sexual health advice at Brook Clinic, the sexual health charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To find out more, call 0808 802 1234<\/strong>, visit www.brook.org.uk<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have been affected by substance abuse, Bristol Drug Project (BDP) can offer free support:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For those aged up to 18: https:\/\/www.bdp.org.uk\/children-and-young-people\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n For adults 18+: https:\/\/www.bdp.org.uk\/get-information\/<\/a> or https:\/\/www.bdp.org.uk\/contact-us\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Being able to learn and communicate virtually has been very useful throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, but there can also be downsides for our safety and wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s important to be aware of what media you\u2019re consuming and where it\u2019s come from. Social media platforms use algorithms to restrict your feed so are unlikely to be a reliable source of information, and can be used by far-right groups and conspiracy theorists to attempt to recruit people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our inclusive and welcoming chaplaincy offers pastoral and spiritual support. As a College student, you can access this directly or through a referral by any staff member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The service:<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have multi-faith prayer rooms<\/a> available for all College staff, students and official visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Email chaplaincy@cityofbristol.ac.uk<\/a> or call 0117 312 5393<\/strong> to find out more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have any concerns about your safety and wellbeing, or if you are worried about another student, please contact the safeguarding and welfare team on 0117 312 5733 or safeguardingteam@cityofbristol.ac.uk<\/a>. Alternatively, you can speak to a member of staff who will contact them for you. A member of the safeguarding team will listen to your concerns and support you to stay safe. If you are a student aged 14-25 and you care for someone else, please feel free to get in touch with us for information and support.
