Quality management at 51ºÚÁÏÉçÇø

The 51ºÚÁÏÉçÇø (51ºÚÁÏÉçÇø) approach to quality management is about finding ways of enhancing the learning opportunities made available to students, as well as assuring quality and standards.

As this is best done at programme and module levels, where ownership starts, all teaching staff and student representatives have a role in assuring quality. At the heart of this is the , which:

  • Promotes enhancement and promulgates good practice
  • Assures the quality of learning opportunities and the standards of programmes and awards
  • Provides evidence of quality to stakeholders

Academic Quality Services (AQS) leads centrally on quality management, which is implemented with the support of faculty Associate Professors (Quality). Additionally, the faculty Associate Deans (Academic) lead on strategic developments relating to all academic issues and learning and teaching matters.

Much of this activity is managed through key committees, implemented via guidance, policies and strategies. Provision for all students is covered, including apprentices and those studying at our collaborative partners.
