Student Voice Sample Clauses

Student Voice. The university recognises that the SU is the primary voice of students and that the SU should be afforded the opportunity for informed engagement with university decisions. As such, the university will ensure that the SU is consulted in a timely fashion before decisions are taken which will impact students and their experience. The University and SU work together to define and promote a range of methods to engage the student voice and student partnership at every level of the institution.

To achieve this, both parties commit to developing open, constructive and continuous dialogue between students and staff, and amongst students. There is mutual recognition of the expertise and insight available in both the University and the SU and the value that each party brings to the relationship.

Student Voice. A number of initiatives are under way aimed at enhancement of communication with students. The Students’ Union President is a member of the Board of Governors, the University Executive Group and Academic Board and the Students’ Union General Manager is a member of the University’s Professional Services Group. The Students’ Union President is also a member of the working group set up to formulate this Access Agreement. As part of an HEA “Students as Partners” Change Initiative, BCUSU is delivering a Student Voice Project aimed at delivery of a range of outcomes to modernise the whole approach to capture of student views and enhancement of participation in University processes. One of these includes a reconstitution of the former Student Representation Coordination Group into a new Student Voice Group with wider representation and focus on delivery of the outcomes of the project. A new system of Feedback Forums is now established to replace and enhance the work of Boards of Studies, with a new Student Academic Leader role also replacing the former Course Representatives. Students’ Union officers and the Head of Membership Engagement continue to work closely with the Director of Learning Experience and the Centre for Enhancement of Learning and Teaching to optimise the student role in academic development.
Student VoicePrior to completing and submitting our Access Agreement for 2012-13 the University consulted widely on the fees and National Scholarship criteria to be introduced. This consultation included discussions at the Board of Governors, whose membership includes the Students‟ Union President; the University Senate, which has Student Union sabbatical representation, and the Corporate Management Group, of which the Students‟ Union Chief Executive is a member. The University senior leadership team held a meeting with the Students‟ Union sabbatical team and the Vice-Chancellor held a separate meeting with the President of the Students‟ Union as well as attending an open student question and answer session, held before the Students‟ Union AGM, to explain the University‟s approach to fee setting for 2012 and answer questions both about that process and about the agreed fee levels. This has become an annual event, alongside regular monthly meetings between the Students‟ Union officers and a Pro-Vice-Chancellor. Both parties are in agreement that the fee setting process was fair, transparent and consultative and the Students‟ Union has not challenged either the process or the outcome. There was a difference of opinion about the National Scholarship Programme initially; both parties were in agreement over the additional criteria introduced by the University in order to target the scholarships more specifically. However, the Union wished to see the scholarships awarded as cash to support living costs rather than fee waivers. Following further discussions with the Students‟ Union, the scholarships for students entering the University in 2014/15 will now include a cash sum in Year 3. The Students‟ Union has also been consulted about the changes to the criteria for 2014/15. More generally, a number of initiatives are under way aimed at enhancement of communication with students.
