Programme review boards, student surveys and external examiner reports all continue to highlight academic skills development work embedded within curriculum delivery as being particularly beneficial in meeting the specific needs of part-time and/or mature students who have limited time on campus (e.g. part-time Education programmes). All these developments, ‘Get Set for Success’, the Personal Tutoring system, and the focus of the Learning and Development Team are subject to review, and the evaluations will feed into further refinement and focussing of our activities in these areas in order to ensure the ongoing development of our students’ potentia...
