We take a proactive, transparent approach to wellbeing, recognising that professional training is demanding and that students may need different forms of support at different times.

Student Wellbeing Support
Italia Conti provides a coordinated framework of pastoral, wellbeing and safeguarding support across all courses and disciplines. Support is available for students experiencing personal, emotional, mental health, medical, financial, housing or other practical difficulties that may affect their wellbeing or ability to engage with training.
Our dedicated Wellbeing Area is staffed during operating hours by trained Wellbeing Team members, providing a calm and confidential space for students to seek support.
The Safeguarding and Wellbeing Lead (Designated Safeguarding Lead), or a Deputy, is always available on site.
Students can access support through drop-in sessions or pre-booked appointments.
Support may include guidance around:
- Mental health and emotional wellbeing
- Housing and financial concerns
- Managing injury or physical health issues
- Liaison with external agencies
- Signposting to specialist or external services, including counselling
The Wellbeing Team also provides first aid support and immediate injury management advice.
Safeguarding Practice and Training
Safeguarding is a shared responsibility at Italia Conti. All staff receive annual training in safeguarding, child protection and Prevent.
All staff recieve annual training in addressing harassment, sexual misconduct and violence.
These areas also form part of both staff and student inductions. All students and staff are expected to adhere to the Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy at all times.
Mental Health Support
Alongside the Wellbeing Team, a large number of staff across the organisation are trained as Mental Health First Aiders and are available as an initial point of contact for students experiencing mental health concerns.
Where appropriate, students may also be referred to online counselling through Italia Conti’s partnership with TELUS Health, accessed online through the student’s ProPortal.
Pastoral and Peer Support
Pastoral care is embedded throughout student life at Italia Conti.
- Heads of Year host regular tutorials to provide ongoing pastoral support, share key information and offer space for discussion
- Course Teams work closely with the Wellbeing Service to ensure student needs are understood and supported
- Students are represented by Course Reps and Equality, Diversity and Inclusivity (EDI) Reps, who provide peer support and a channel for raising ideas, concerns and good practice
- Students on courses validated by UEL also have access to selected support services through UEL collaborative student entitlement agreements.
Medical Support
The Wellbeing Team provides first aid support and immediate injury management advice during normal working hours. Many staff across the building are also first aid trained.
Wellbeing Officers act as trusted points of contact for students with personal or medical concerns and can advise on counselling, specialist appointments or medical support where required. In an emergency, students are referred directly to hospital services.
The Wellbeing Team has access to students’ self-declared medical information and emergency contacts. Students living away from home are strongly encouraged to register with a local GP.
The Hub
Whilst studying at Italia Conti, students also have access to The Hub, a dedicated social and relaxation space providing:
- Facilities to prepare food
- Seating for eating and resting
- A space to recharge between classes and rehearsals
