AMOSSHE's response to the OfS sexual misconduct survey

On 22 April 2025 we wrote to the Office for Students (OfS) with members’ feedback about the sexual misconduct survey.

The survey aims to get national insight into the prevalence of sexual misconduct in the English higher education sector. It covers student experiences of sexual harassment, sexual assault / violence and reporting sexual misconduct to providers. The survey is optional for students to complete, and they’re invited to take part once they’ve completed the National Student Survey.

The letter highlights members’ concerns and points for learning for future iterations of the survey.

Here's our response.
