    Support for students who have caring responsibilities.

    Current
      As a parent of young children, Kingston University could do more to support students with caring responsibilities. For example, online or recorded lectures if needing to look after sick children, reading weeks that align with school half-terms and timetables given with enough time to organise childcare. Having caring responsibilities, whether that is looking after children, an elderly or unwell parent, means we have to juggle a huge amount, particularly if you are a single parent or do not have a support system. Kingston University should be more inclusive and do more to support these students.

    12:08pm on 23 Oct 25 Hi Sophie, Thank you for your idea, and I completely agree with you. I’m pleased to inform you that we are working with the university on a lecture capture project that we hope will be operational by September 2026. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need any support from the SU. Best regards, Hamza President, Student Union
