The Education Strategy draws on the Strategy for Learning, Teaching and Assessment (SLTA), developed and launched in 2014 in partnership with our Student Union, which articulated the six core principles behind our education mission. These principles remain at the core of this education strategy.
Â
Our education strategy seeks to embed these principles within review and enhancement processes to ensure that they are effectively implemented throughout the university and that academic leadership is empowered to deploy these core principles throughout all our programmes. [Educ. Strategy 1.6]
The Principles, and the standards that support them, incorporate both strategic design and operational requirements, and are the framework used on a regular basis to reflect upon and review the quality of learning, teaching and assessment in faculties, departments and programmes.
The Principles and Standards are the subject of regular review and professional discussion through all enhancement activity:
Continuous Monitoring and Improvement cycles:
Programme teams should use the LTA Confidence Grid to assess how well the Principles and Standards are reflected in their programme design and delivery and feed enhancements into the Continuous Monitoring and Improvement Planning cycle.
The principles and standards are also available as illustrated posters. Click on the images below to see them.
