St Mary’s University College Twickenham London Annual Report 2009 www.smuc.ac.uk St Mary’s University College Twickenham London Annual Report 2009 www.smuc.ac.uk Student Services In the past year, Student Services has begun carrying out equality impact assessments on its policies and procedures, in order to ensure that they do not discriminate in any way. It is a requirement that this is carried out every three years, so it is an ongoing project. All new policies will undergo equality impact assessment before they are approved. The operation and staffing of the Health Centre has also been reviewed. When the University College nurse retired, a local Medical Practice took over the management of the Health Centre, as a branch of their Twickenham practice. This means that students are automatically registered with the main practice and can avail of their full service to patients. Student Services – Accommodation – Dyslexia and Disability Support – Money Matters The revised Student Charter has been completed and has led to work on identifying the key elements of student entitlement. Since variable fees were introduced a few years ago, we are trying to ensure that all students are aware of what they can expect from our academic schools and services in pursuing their studies. A review of the role and responsibilities of wardens in halls of residence was initiated. It is envisaged that the role of wardens will, of necessity, evolve into mentoring resident students in order to enhance their learning experience. To this end, we have already provided additional continuous professional development. 22 The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) asked us to produce a Widening Participation Strategic Assessment. Student Services convened a small team from across the University College to complete this task. This was submitted in early summer. The response from HEFCE in the autumn was very positive; they commended the clarity of the submission and St Mary’s commitment to widening participation from underrepresented groups in society. 23
