Where the matter is outside of scope of this Procedure, appropriate corrective action, reasonable directions, support services and referrals may be issued as appropriate by red learning institute.

1. Principles

Wherever possible complaints will be resolved by a process of discussion, cooperation and, where appropriate, as soon as possible after an issue or situation has occurred. Complaints will be acknowledged and handled promptly. Complaints will be treated sensitively having due regard to procedural fairness and confidentiality.
2. Types of Complaint
There are different types of complaint within the scope of this procedure.
2.1 Complaints about academic decisions and matters

3. How complaints are handled
In most circumstances the institute follows a three stage complaints handling model:
Normal process: Resolving complaints through an informal process which aims to sort out complaints as quickly and as close to the source of complaint as possible. This approach is generally considered suitable for straight forward issues or matters that are urgent but not serious.
Management process: If the complaints or issue is not sorted in normal process in appropriate way. Management will take over the complaint to resolve the issue or complaint as soon as possible.
Appeal. A complaint may appeal a decision made by the student in the Higher Authority investigation on the grounds of lack of procedural fairness only. No appeal is available in respect of the substantive merits of the investigation.


Procedure
The procedure is based on the following principles:
  • A student has the right to be accompanied by a colleague or friend at every stage of the formal procedure.
  • Any complaints, to become formal, must be made in writing as soon as possible
  • In all cases, reference to informal resolution in advance of formal complaint is recommended
  • All proceedings, whether informal or formal, should, so far as is practicable, remain confidential
  • A formal record of any hearing will be available to the student. The hearing will be recorded and a copy given to the student
  • The timescales set out may be extended with the agreement of the parties. Where more than one student has lodged a complaint relating to the same, or substantially the same, issue, the complaints may be dealt with together in the interests of fair and consistent decision-making.
  • Where a complaint concerns an apparently trivial issue the relevant staff member will discuss this informally with the student to determine whether there is a real need to pursue the matter through the complaints procedure.
  • If the student and member of staff are unable to agree, the student will be entitled to submit the complaint formally together with any further evidence or explanation that throws new light on it, and demonstrates that a substantive complaint is in fact being made.
  • If the student’s complaint restates a complaint that has been dealt with in the past, the student will be asked to explain how the new complaint differs from the previous one, and either what new incident has occurred or what new evidence has come to light. Where it is clear that there is nothing new being raised, the center can reject the complaint without a hearing or committee meeting.
