What opportunities will there be on my programme to provide feedback to staff? We value student feedback greatly and you will find during your programme that your module leaders will seek feedback from you informally during the trimester. They will be keen to hear what you and your class mates are enjoying, what is going well and any concerns or changes which you feel might be required. Towards the end of the module, there will be the opportunity to complete a module evaluation questionnaire. Here you can give your views on key aspects of the module, including the teaching and learning you have experienced, the assessment and feedback you have received, and comment on the resources used to support the delivery of the module. Depending on the level of study you are at you will also be asked to provide feedback through the National Student Survey (UG) or Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES). Programme teams welcome feedback at all times. < Guidance: In this section, the Programme Leader should detail the operation of SSLC and Boards of Study on your programme and how these forum are used to seek and action student feedback, enhance and support the development of the programme etc.>
