This guidance has been produced by the Government and is aimed at the Vice-Chancellors and Principals of Higher Education (HE) providers. It comes in response to requests from some educational providers for practical advice on how to respond to a number of challenging and sensitive issues. The guidance gives practical advice and draws on the good practice that already exists within the sector., The document is part of a range of guidance available to HE providers on tackling different forms of extremism that might take place on campus. Violent extremism in the name of Islam is not the only form of extremism that exists on campus and universities and colleges should be prepared to take a tough line against any form of extremism that leads to or advocates violence. However this guidance is concerned with how HE providers can work with the vast majority of students on campus to isolate and challenge the very small minority who promote violent extremism in the name of Islam. It seeks to sensitise staff to the issues and encourage them to think about how Higher Education communities can become more vigilant and work with staff and students to take responsible preventative action to tackle violent extremism in the name of Islam on their campuses.
