Parents and Carers

Seeing your young adult leave for University can be challenging for Parents/Carers on a number of different levels but these pages are here to help you with useful hints and tips.

We are always eager to engage with Parent/Carers but as part of students education we are also looking to help develop them as individuals and this includes promoting responsibility.

We appreciate that as a Parent/Carer you want to be involved with all aspects of student life but we cannot and will not discuss any issues involving particular individuals without the express consent of that individual.  Students at York St John are adults and as such have the right to have their personal information handled in accordance with data protection legislation and all details of students are dealt with in the strictest of confidence.

These pages are here to help you as a Parent/Carer know what support is available here at York St John so you can support students  in getting information, advice and guidance when they need it. 

We also have general information for you in helping students prepare for University and making sure they have everything they need.  We also have information on visiting and staying in York for those all important visits.
