Student Life and Learning

The Team and our Philosophy

The Student Life and Learning Team was created in May 2011 and is part of Student Support and Development Services.

The team aims to:

  • Develop, co-ordinate and support a range of activities aimed at enhancing the learning experience and easing student transition
  • Design and deliver opportunities for student academic and personal development via effective and innovative learning services
  • Support students and disseminate advice and guidance on academic processes and welfare issues
  • Support staff to more effectively support students

The Student Life and Learning Team is made up by three Life and Learning Developers and is supported by a departmental administrator. The team strives to develop and support students and their student experience and works with students in a number of contexts and during key stages throughout the year. We work directly with students and provide a blend of curriculum, co-curriculum and non-curriculum based support. We want to empower students by offering ideas and approaches to study and equipping them with the tools to learn, inspiring them to think and encouraging them to enjoy their discipline. We produce and develop a range of online sources and work closely with academic schools to ensure that our activities map effectively onto the academic year and better relate to the student experience.
