Complaints procedure

If you register a complaint and provide contact details, we will reply within 3 working days. 

We will investigate your complaint immediately. We may contact you to ask for more information.  

If you are a current student, we may suggest an in-person meeting where you can be accompanied by another person such as a tutor, parent/guardian or other representative. 

Once the investigation is complete, a written response will be sent to you, including the findings and any action that is being taken. 

We will respond to you within 10 working days of receipt of the complaint. 

If you are dissatisfied with the response, you can pursue the matter in the following way: 

• If you are a student at the University, you can submit a Complaints Form (PDF: 840 KB) with any supporting evidence to [email protected]. More information about the Newcastle University complaints procedure can be found on the Student Progress website. 
• If your complaint is about an assessed work-related module, the academic appeals procedure should be followed.
• If you are another user of the service, you can write to Lucy Backhurst, Academic Registrar, King’s Gate, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE1 7RU.
