Why student accommodation security is so important
We take concerted action to ensure that students remain safe in their accommodation.
Student Accommodation
Living away from home can be a daunting experience for some students. Not only are they embarking on their tertiary education journey; they’re also experiencing a key milestone in their life as they move away from family and friends to join a new, supportive community.
A crucial part of building a rewarding community is ensuring students and their belongings are safe and secure. Prioritising security means that students can get back to focusing on what really matters: their education.
Constant has partnered with student accommodation services for over ten years to build safe, secure and supportive environments for students across Australia. Our team understands the multitude of safety & security challenges that can exist within student accommodation. More importantly, we know how to integrate this knowledge into a security strategy that contributes to an overall safe and supportive culture.

Why student accommodation security is so important
Students can be particularly vulnerable to security threats, meaning it’s fundamental that they are consistently supported by experienced security professionals. An appropriately selected and trained security officer within student accommodation can take concerted action to:
- Provide for and support the wellbeing of students
- Protect the belongings and gadgets that students store in their accommodation
- Ensure cultural sensitivities are understood and respected
- Stop trespassers or other unwelcome guests from entering the accommodation
- Provide Mental Health First Aid
- Be an natural extension of your operational team
- Provide peace of mind to students and their families
- Monitor for and prevent anti-social behaviour
- Actively deter crime
- Report security developments to management or authorities
