Caring responsibilities, whether they are for your children, older relatives or other family members, can place additional burdens on a student but need not prevent you from studying successfully.
The pages in this section are designed to provide you with important information to prepare for coming to Derby and some advice about balancing your responsibilities with your academic career.
If you cannot find the information that you need on these pages please contact us in the Student Wellbeing Service.
Some students with caring responsibilities may also find our pages for Mature Students of interest.
