RESIDENT SUPPORT

We provide plenty of support along the way, through our Resident Assistant programme.

One of the first people you will meet is your Residential Assistant (RA) who is a member of the residential staff team. We use the concept of Key Groups to ensure that all residents are being looked after. We put Key Groups together with care, and activities will be planned with your Key Group from day one. However there will be chances to find other new friends in your courses and tutorial groups, at the gym, in social and sporting groups and randomly.

Peer Support & the Residential Assistants
RA’s are selected for their capabilities to take on additional responsibilities above their workload as a student and for their personal qualities. They undergo an intensive two week training programme while you are enjoying the last of the summer vacation and are well equipped to cope with the myriad of issues that can present themselves. Campus Living Villages is currently developing a mentor programme to further assist RA grow their leadership capabilities.
