Quality assurance and quality enhancement framework sets out the membership and remit of the Stakeholder Engagement Task Group
The Quality Enhancement Committee aims to provide schools with support to enhance the quality of the teaching and learning including the spread of best practice. The Committee aims to ensure that the university's learning infrastructure and its organisational development are coordinated with the needs of schools. The QE Committee has a close link to the Student Experience Enhancement Group. This group brings together students and the front line staff who deal with student support both in schools and central services. The Stakeholder Engagement Task Group therefore provides a means for identifying areas where development is required as well as providing feedback on proposals for quality enhancement.
