Equality Data Monitoring

We believe that providing equality of opportunity to anyone applying to college is of the greatest importance.

Unfortunately, there have been times when people have been deprived of opportunities because of the colour of their skin, their gender, their sexual orientation, their religion or because of a disability. We want to make sure that this does not happen at Borders College. For this reason, we are asking sensitive personal questions about you in this section so that we can make sure you are getting a fair chance. It will also help us to offer you services to make the most of your time at College if you need and want them.

The data you provide will be kept securely, is confidential and protected by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) EU 2016/679 and the new Data Protection Act 2018. We will use the data to ensure our services are being fair to everyone. We will share the data with the Scottish Funding Council who will treat it confidentially and will use it only for statistical purposes.

We would like you to complete all the questions in this section to help us make sure our services are fair but there are always the options to tell us you would prefer not to say.

LIMITED LIABILITY

Borders College has the right to amend the content and/or the requirements of the courses without any form of compensation becoming payable to students. In the event of a course being cancelled, the College's liability will be limited to a refund of fees already paid.

ADVANCED DISCLOSURE CHECKS

For some courses where the students may have a work experience placement working with children or vulnerable adults the College requires the successful applicants to undergo enhanced disclosure checks. For these courses you are also required to disclose all convictions both spent and unspent under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exclusions and Exception) (Scotland) Order 2003. The Act states that any person who comes into contact with young people under the age of 18 during their course must declare all previous convictions - spent or not. Therefore failure to do so may result in dismissal from your course. This applies only to all care courses and some sports courses.

Fees

As a student of Borders College, you are agreeing to honour the payment of fees.
Please Note: where course fees are applicable, it is the student's responsibility to ensure correct funding is in place, and failure to provide the correct documentation will result in you being responsible for the payment of course fees.
