Be a good neighbour

Living In your community

Our relationship with our neighbours is very important to us. As a Leeds Beckett University student, you need to be aware of the responsibilities you have while on campus and in the local community.

You have a duty to behave appropriately as outlined in your student contract and if your behaviour is inappropriate the university will take disciplinary action.

There is no such thing as a ‘student area’ in Leeds. Wherever you live, your neighbours will include people from all walks of life and all ages. Every year your neighbours welcome and support students to get to know the area, from letting you know your bin collection day to advice on the best local takeaway. In return, they ask that you consider their daily lives as you live yours.

Helping others, looking out for those around you, keeping the noise down and being friendly might seem like small things, but they can make a huge difference.

Living in a connected and supportive community helps mental health, not just yours, but your neighbours too. Be kind to them and be the best neighbour you can be.

Our expectations of you

You can find details of the university’s expectations around your behaviour as well as the complaints process in the student contact.

The Leeds Beckett student contract

We expect you to conduct yourself at all times in a manner which demonstrates respect for the university, its students and staff, and members of the wider community. When you join you enter into a student contract which outlines our expectations on your behaviour.

These include:

  • Compliance with the university’s regulations and policies on student behaviour and conduct,
  • Listen to and respect the differing perspectives of those from different cultures and backgrounds
  • Take care with our personal and professional identity, particularly in social and digital interactions and recognise the impact those interactions may have on others

We have a process for members of the local community to report anti-social behaviour and we will carry out disciplinary action on any Leeds Beckett University students found to be involved. Anti-social behaviour is not tolerated and we will enforce our student code of conduct.

  • Your tenancy agreement in private accommodation will also make it clear that you are responsible for the behaviour of yourself and any guests.
  • Most of the complaints we receive around noise are from house parties.
  • Anti-social behaviour and repeated offences of this kind will result in disciplinary action by the university.

Sanctions include:

  • Fines of up to £500
  • Termination of student residency agreement
  • Suspension
  • Expulsion

We work closely with all universities in Leeds, the city council and the police to prevent and deal with inconsiderate behaviour off campus.

Leeds Beckett University and University of Leeds have made a significant investment to make sure Leeds City Council responds to complaints about anti-social behaviour and noise nuisance. We’re funding extra noise nuisance patrols to make sure the council has dedicated officers to respond to noise nuisance complaints in the areas where large numbers of students live.

A legal notice issued by the council can result in:

  • a criminal conviction,
  • confiscation of any noise-making equipment,
  • fines of up to £5,000
  • closure notices on a house to prohibit entry by visitors or even occupants.
A criminal conviction can have a long-term impact on your life and your future career!
