Student Retention and Success Framework Sample Clauses

Student Retention and Success Framework. In 2010 a cross-institutional working group, the Student Retention Improvement Team (SRIT) was established to coordinate activity, focus attention on the issues, and make recommendations directed at improving student retention and success across the University. Membership of the Group includes a member of the SMT with responsibility for the student experience, colleagues from the key relevant central professional support services, academic course leaders and the Students’ Union. The Group has developed a Student Retention and Success Framework (SRSF), which focuses on a number of core features of the student lifecycle - from pre-entry, the academic experience, to professional development and employability and including dissemination of effective practice - around the known student retention and success issues, and sets out some core requirements and recommended interventions, together with links to relevant resources and examples of good practice. An annual staff development event focusing on the SRSF has been held since 2011-12 to assist with the wide dissemination and further implementation of the Framework across the University. The event is open to all staff and involves keynote speakers from leading national researchers in the field and workshop sessions to encourage the evaluation and sharing of effective student retention and success interventions. Another key element of the Framework is Refreshers’ Week, which has been developed and monitored through SRIT and the Student Experience Committee and was delivered to first year students for the third time in the Autumn term 2014. The programme is an extension of the induction activities offered in Welcome Week, reminding and signposting all students to academic and support services and provided during the period of the ‘six week wobble’ when many students have been identified as questioning their choices as the reality of higher education hits home. Our intention is to continue to develop this event in 2015, to encourage more students to participate and to involve more academic schools. Student retention and success measures Our programme of support for student retention and success will focus on targeted support for students from under-represented groups, in the context of an overall approach to retention and student success that is embedded in work across all our academic schools and campuses. We will take a targeted approach to the elements of expenditure on embedded measures to identify the proporti...

Student Retention and Success Framework. As detailed in the previous Access Agreement, the Student Retention Improvement Team (SRIT) will continue to be the university’s primary vehicle to coordinate activity, focus attention on the issues and make recommendations directed at improving student retention and success. During 2013-14 SRIT developed an enhanced and updated version of the university’s Student Retention and Success Framework which now includes a new section on employability together with identified areas of responsibility and contacts. We will continue to hold an annual Student Retention and Success Framework staff development event to assist with the dissemination and further implementation of the framework across the University. This event will include keynote speakers from leading national researchers in the field and workshop sessions to encourage the evaluation and sharing of effective student retention and success interventions. Another key element of the Framework is ensuring a process of induction that extends beyond the first week. Two new student communication and engagement campaigns, ASK ME? and Get to Know Your Campus were launched this year, developed and monitored through SRIT and the Student Experience Forum. The campaigns aim to welcome students to the university, ensure students know where to go when they have a question, and to help build a sense of community. Our intention is to continue to develop these events for 2016-17; to encourage more students to participate and to involve more academic schools and other Professional Services in the delivery of activities for new students.
