Student deaths

Claire Wilde made this Freedom of Information request to Roehampton University as part of a batch sent to 142 authorities Automatic anti-spam measures are in place for this older request. Please let us know if a further response is expected or if you are having trouble responding.

The request was partially successful.

Under the freedom of information act, please can I request the following information in relation to your university and any institutions you accredit degrees for.

a) The number of student deaths in each calender year of 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, as well as the first quarter of 2022 (with separate figures for each year please);

b) Of these, the number of student deaths recorded as suicide by a coroner in each calender year of 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, as well as the first quarter of 2022;

c) For each death recorded as suicide by a coroner, the date of death;

d) For each death recorded as suicide by a coroner, the campus or college which the student had been attending (if your institution has more than one college/campus).
