The context
The Code commences on 1 January 2026 for Table A and B providers and 1 January 2027 for other providers. Provider circumstances and transitional provisions require specific review.
A practical next step
Confirm your provider category and applicable commencement provisions first. Coordinate prevention, response, governance, accommodation and student support work in one programme. Use the detailed Code and regulatory guidance to determine each submission and reporting date; a commencement date is not a substitute for a reporting calendar.
Make the work accountable
Record the evidence you have, the gaps that remain, the owner of each action and the date for review. Escalate unresolved risks through your institution’s governance processes.
