The following Code of Practice on Freedom of Speech was approved by Council on 9 February 2026.

It reflects the requirements of the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) 2023, which came into force on 1 August 2025 and the Office for Students' regulatory advice 24 which also came into force on 1 August 2025.

The code does not change the University’s pre-existing position that freedom of speech and academic freedom are central tenets of university life and must be robustly protected.
